According to data collected through written records, interviews and iconographic sources which were compared to the bibliography about the history of the health in Brazil, it was possible to develop a qualitative research which main object is the Sanatorium Getúlio Vargas itself. The research provided the knowledge of the daily routine of patients with tuberculosis and health professionals who were responsible for this area between the years of 1942 and 1967 (period of the construction and functioning of the Sanatorium).
