Treatment for psychosis lasts a long time with increased likelihood of hospitalization. Surveillance is used to monitor trends in mental disorders to predict and prevent recurrence. The objective of this paper was to the benefits of surveillance to prevent recurrence of mental disorders. The method consisted of a search for Google scholar, PubMed, NIHR and Research Gate. Ten articles obtained, while six were suitable for analysis based on suitability of purpose of the study. The results showed that surveillance variables consisted of risk factors, protective factors, triggers factors, and mental health indicators. The impact included socio-economic, disability, and the risk of suicide/self-harm. It is recommended to include surveillance activities in community-based psychosocial rehabilitation programs, so that recording signs or symptoms of relapse can be carried out routinely.
