Un fómite es cualquier objeto carente de vida o sustancia que, si se contamina con algún patógeno viable, tal como bacterias, virus, hongos o parásitos, es capaz de transferir dicho patógeno de un individuo a otro. Por eso también se les denomina "vector pasivo". Las células de la piel, el pelo, las vestiduras y las sábanas son fuentes comunes de contaminación en los hospitales.
