Most of the material published on the subject is of the point of view of the medical evaluation. The knowledge of the reasons that the adherence to the proposed treatment, from the patient's point of view, can help to create interdisciplinary programs that enhance this process, providing higher quality of life, especially for the scarce financial resources and socio-cultural population.
