Abstract
Objective: To map health care management actions that contributed to reducing treatment abandonment among adults with tuberculosis (TB) living in developing countries. Method: This scoping review will follow the JBI guidelines. The initial search was conducted on May 31, 2023, with no time or language restrictions. Search strategies were developed and peer-reviewed by a librarian specializing in scientific research. The selected databases were MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, LILACS, and gray literature. Inclusion criteria were studies involving adult patients undergoing TB treatment; living in low- and middle-income countries; and describing management actions aimed at reducing treatment abandonment and/or loss to follow-up. Exclusion criteria were adults without TB; children and adolescents with TB; studies on multidrug-resistant TB (already widely addressed in the literature); studies involving adults from high-income countries; and hospital-based studies. The results will be presented using tables, charts, and/or diagrams, with descriptive analysis aligned with the objective of this scoping review. A narrative summary of the main findings will also be provided.
