| Summary: | Objective: to evaluate the impact of a telephone intervention on the adherence to antiretroviral therapy in women with human immunodeficiency virus. Methods : quasi experimental study, before and after, conducted in a specialized service with 19 women who live with the human immunodeficiency virus. The study was developed in four phases: recruitment; assessment of adherence to antiretroviral treatment, telephone intervention and reassessment of adherence. During three months of follow-up, eight calls were made to each participant, totaling 152 interventions. Results: there was a statistically significant improvement in the number of participants with adequate adherence (p=0.004) and in the mean of adherence scores (p=0.000) after the intervention. There was no significant impact on the immune status. Conclusion: telephone interventions aimed at women with human immunodeficiency virus developed during three months proved to be effective for improving adherence to treatment. |
