Abstract

Literary production on risk factors and prophylactic attitudes of students and health professional with regard to hepatitis B is provided. The source of current research was the Virtual Library of Science at the data bases LILACS, SciELO and BDENF, undertaken in 2014, for 2004 – 2014. The following selection criteria were used: journals in English, Spanish and Portuguese and access to the full text. Twenty-two articles were selected. The application of tools to measure the different types of life quality were predominant much more than studies to validate instruments. Moreover, life quality of the females was directly associated to treatment adhesion. The theme should be more underscored since high rates of occurrences during the last years and inequalities with regard to social, economic, cultural and gender contexts focus several aspects that may affect life quality.
