- Abstract
It is a qualitative research aimed to analyze the opinion of health professionals at the Testing and Counseling Center/ Specialized Attention Service (TCC/ EAS) comparing to advise provided to people living with human T-lymphotropic human type I and II (HTLV I / II) and identify the facilities/difficulties in implementing such advice. It was held in Santo Antonio de Jesus/Bahia/Brazil, in the CTA/SAE, with eight health professionals as informants. The strategy for collecting information was a semi-structured interview guided by a script. The information from the interviews was analyzed using thematic content analysis as proposed by Minayo. Ethics permeated the entire research process, according to Resolution 196/96 of the National Health Results. The results showed that the completion of counseling is usually compromised by limited information about HTLV. It is necessary to create a training program for HTLV, thus allowing the creation of multipliers of information, encouraging the knowledge of serological status, promoting prevention and reducing the infection rate.
