    Objective: To determine the relationship between the level of knowledge about tuberculosis and treatment adherence in patients at a Health Center in Los Olivos, 2021. Methodology: The research will use a hypothetical-deductive method with a quantitative approach, a basic type, and a correlational design. The population will consist of 80 patients diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis, selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria defined in the study. Data Collection Techniques and Instruments: To collect information on the variable "level of knowledge about tuberculosis," a survey technique will be applied, using an instrument with 28 items grouped into 4 dimensions. For the "treatment adherence" variable, a survey technique will also be used, with an instrument consisting of 13 items grouped into two dimensions. Procedures: Data will be collected from the Tuberculosis Control Program (TCP) at a Health Center in Los Olivos over a one-month period. Once the information is gathered, it will be processed using the SPSS statistical software, version 26. Statistical Analysis: Frequency tables, graphs, summary measures, and central tendency measures will be obtained. The hypotheses will be tested using the Spearman Rho correlation statistical test, with a significance level of p < 0.05.
