Objetivos: El objetivo del estudio fue identificar las creencias y actitudes en relación a la TB en trabajadores de la salud de una localidad de Bogotá. Metodogía: Estudio de tipo descriptivo-transversal, a partir de la aplicación de un instrumento a 202 trabajadores de la salud durante el periodo de Marzo a Agosto de 2010. Resultados: Se encontró que el 32,0&#37; de trabajadores considera la enfermedad transmisible hasta 2 a 3 semanas de iniciado el tratamiento. El 25,0&#37; de los participantes refirieron que la enfermedad continúa siendo transmisible a pesar del tratamiento. El 48,5&#37; de los trabajadores respondieron que se sentirían bien al atender a un paciente con TB y el 51,5&#37; estarían indecisos y/o no se sentirían bien. Los datos preliminares verifican que persisten creencias y actitudes erróneas en relación a la TB, lo cual puede afectar la detección precoz y la adherencia al tratamiento.
