ABSTRACT

A descriptive observational research of quail-quanti character was carried out from March 2009 to March 2010, the study universe was constituted by 60 family doctors belonging to the medical doctor's offices type I and 100 pregnant from Ciego de Avila. Knowledge to professionals were evaluated, to whom a questionnaire was applied to them to identify knowledge and attitudes on vaginal infection in pregnant women, and 10 focal groups, two by each health area. Most of professionals set out the utility of the vaginal exudates, many of them had acceptable minimum knowledge, because they did not know symptoms and complications as well as the causes that produce it. The prevention of vaginal infection is not considered an important factor for its control, which demonstrates acceptable minimum knowledge in a 81.7 percent. Pregnant women relate difficulties in the knowledge of symptoms and the use of condoms as a means of protection. The knowledge evaluation, attitude and practice on vaginal infection was valued as minimum acceptable and a strategy of behavior educative intervention was suggested.
