摘要:Tuberculosis is an infectious disease of airborne transmission, caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, which is configured as a serious public health problem, among other factors, by the abandonment of treatment by users. The present study aimed to identify the main concepts and factors associated with non-adherence to tuberculosis care in Primary Health Care. This is a narrative review of literature, conducted on the following platforms: PubMed, LILACS, SciELO and the CAPES Periodical Portal, where 1634 studies were found, 18 of which met the inclusion criteria to be read and analyzed in full. The main findings were: deficiencies in the organization of the health system at the level of articulation between levels of health care and fragility in the completion of notification instruments, which make the supply of services ineffective for the control of tuberculosis and, coupled with socially vulnerable patients, potentiate the abandonment of tuberculosis treatment. Finally, it was possible to achieve the general objective of this study, identifying the main concepts and factors associated with non-adherence to tuberculosis care, which is a disease with a high possibility of cure, and at the same time a high percentage of deaths in Brazil and worldwide.
