ABSTRACT

This article verifies the dissemination and use of the researches funded by the Department of Science and Technology of the Ministry of Health. It is a study of six cases with imbricated analysis, where it is verified that the decentralization policy of the promotion contributed to the reduction of inequality in the production of health knowledge, although there is inequality in the volume of resources allocated. The dissemination of results was the limiting factor of the incorporation of the research results. Survey monitoring formats should be improved. The determinant factor in the incorporation of knowledge and technologies by the health system is the technical and politic intentionality for the use of the results.
