Masters dissertation member of the matrix project "PCATool: evaluation of primary care in the 4th Regional Coordination of Health/Rio Grande do Sul". Over the years important advances in the process of reorganization in primary health care have occurred, however, improvement in work quality is still a major challenge. Amongst the essential attributes that drive and qualify the primary care services, the attribute that stands out is longitudinality. Longitudinality is a regular source of care, the establishment of a bond and informational continuity. In this context, as the subject of study is the longitudinality in Primary Health Care and as research question: What is the quality of Primary Health Care in the aspect of longitudinality, in the municipalities that make up the 4th Regional Coordination of Health in the State of Rio Grande do Sul?. The aim is to evaluate the longitudinality in Primary Health Care, under the adult user's perspective, in municipalities of the 4th Regional Coordination of Health in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. It is about a cross-sectional research developed in the Primary Health Care services of 4th Regional Coordination of Health in Rio Grande do Sul, composed by Health Region Verdes Campos e Entre Rios, with 1076 adult users, in the period from February to June, 2015. The instrument used for the collection was the Primary Care Assessment Tool, the adult version, with answers on Likert Scale. The data was analyzed with the help Statistical Package for the Social Sciences program. To compare the proportions we used the Chi-square test and for average comparisons we used the Kruskal Wallis test and Post Hoc Dunn test. We used Pearson correlation to check the dependence degree between longitudinality items and the score. We used Poisson regression to check the association between independent variables and the score. The ethical guidelines are based on 466/2013 resolution. In the first article, Benefits of longitudinality as attribute of Primary Health Care , an integrative review revealed the benefits of longitudinality in Primary Health Care: it allows to know the user and their health problems, plans care, establishes bond, interpersonal relationship, trust and user satisfaction. It provides orientation to the user, prevents disease and pomotes health, resoluteness, and quality of life. It reduces the use of highly complex services and health costs. The second article, "The presence and extent of longitudinality in Primary Health Care: assessment to the user s perspective refers to the general evaluation. The affiliation degree with the Primary Health Care services was evaluated with a high score (8.62). The results indicate a low score for longitudinality (6.38) and those items with a negative result are related to the family and social context and their history of health and disease. In the third article, "Longitudinality assessment in Primary Health Care: comparison between types of services", the affiliation grade with the Primary Health Care services obtained high scores in all types of services. The longitudinality was better evaluated in the Family Health Strategy and had a significant difference. The high score of longitudinality was associated to: 60 years age or over, health region Entre Rios and the type of service of family health. The study revealed a low score (<6,6) for longitudinality and shows the need for reorientation of the care model and of the professional formation. In evaluation of the attribute for types of services, satisfactory results were shown to the Family Health Strategy. The suggestion is to expant the strategy for qualification of Primary Health Care and effectiveness of the searched attribute.
