The care of people is carried out in permanent interaction, and the scientific knowledge of nursing professionals who directly express the educational and supervision strategies to the person in need of care is essential. The efficiency and effectiveness of its functions depends on this, both in the human aspect and in compliance with the procedures to be carried out with the patient and family. TB alters the quality of life of users. Likewise, when diagnosed it represents great changes in their lifestyle for the user: a costly increase in economic spending and psychological changes, as well as for the family and the State. Furthermore, users require special care regarding TB, as they are considered a labile and risk group, so it is essential to safeguard their full well-being. It is vitally important to determine the level of self-care practices in patients receiving treatment against tuberculosis. The study will help lay the foundations for future research, with the results obtained we will be able to identify what or which areas we must reinforce during patient education, likewise during treatment supervision it will allow us to focus on the precise care that helps to have success of the treatment and with the contributions provided, reduce abandonment rates.
