Abstract

Background: The use of health indicators allows the assessment of the extent and magnitude of a characteristic or occurrence of a problem in each population. Objective: To analyze the health indicators used to perform the situational diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) according to national and international literature. Methods: An integrative review performed through the question “How have health indicators been used to make the situational diagnosis of TB?” elaborated on the PICo strategy in the LILACS, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases. It was considered as criteria, primary studies with complete texts published in Portuguese, English, and Spanish, and to answer the guiding question. Results: Of the 39 articles selected, health indicators were categorized in epidemiological, operational dimensions, management, quality of health services and programs, inputs, and medicines logistics, socioeconomic and demographic, access to health services, and registration and surveillance systems.
