Abstract

Objective: to identify scientific evidence about the reasons for not attending appointments at maternal and child health services. Method: integrative review conducted at the bases CINAHL, BDENF, Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, Science Direct and VHL databases, without limitation of the year of publication, following the PRISMA tool. The population was defined as patients who missed scheduled appointments. Results: 308 studies were identified, 63 were selected for full reading and three for the final sample. The main reasons related to defaulting behavior involved socioeconomic conditions, geographic accessibility and users' understanding of the importance of health commitment, all situations that can favor an unfavorable outcome for the binomial. Conclusion: it was concluded that the scarcity of articles on the topic justifies further studies aimed at deepening the difficulties encountered by families, in order to devise strategies that help to minimize the harmful effects of lack of follow-up.
