Sumario:A search for the associated Higgs production (VH) is reported for Higgs boson decays via WW bosons in fully leptonic final states, accompanied by a vector boson V decaying into two hadronic jets. The analysis uses pp collision data at $\sqrt{s}=7~\rm{TeV}$ from the LHC corresponding to an integrated luminosity of $4.9$ fb$^{-1}$ recorded by the CMS detector in 2011. No significant excess of events above the standard model background expectation is observed for a selection of event candidates with with two leptons, electrons or muons, large missing transverse energy and two jets. Upper limits on the Higgs boson production relative to the standard model Higgs expectation are obtained for a Higgs boson in the mass range 120-190 GeV.
