Abstract

Purpose
Health behavior is important for the treatment of tuberculosis patients. This study aims to clarify the concept of health behavior in tuberculosis patients.
Methods
We used Rodger's evolutionary concept analysis method. A literature search was performed using the NDSL, NAL, RISS, PubMed, ProQuest, CINAHL, Web of Science and Cochrane Library published in Korean and English language from January 2015 to April 2021. After applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 69 articles were selected for final analysis.
Results
The analysis showed that five attributes determine health behavior concepts: willpower, the choice for every moment, counterbalance, overcoming, and multi-level multi-causal processes.
Conclusion
This study shows that health behavior in tuberculosis patients has evolved into a patient-centered approach in an evolutionary context. The results of this study will contribute to the development of intervention access and management programs for health care providers, including nurses.
