RESUMEN
Se realizó un estudio de intervención educativa en la comuna de Ouanamenthe departamento Nord-Este del país de Haití con el objetivo de incrementar el control en las mujeres con riesgo preconcepcional de enero-junio del 2006. Se usó el método estadístico Epinfo 6.0. Se estudiaron 160 pacientes mediante el método aleatorio simple de un total de 346 mujeres en edad fértil con riesgo preconcepcional del área dispensarizada. Se determinó que el desconocimiento y el temor a su utilización fueron las principales causas de su no utilización así como la falta de conocimiento de la existencia de un programa de planificación familiar a nivel nacional en este país. Se logró que el 78,1 por ciento de las pacientes incluidas usaran al menos un método anticonceptivo.
ABSTRACT
A study of educative intervention in the commune of Ouanamenthe, Northeastern Department of Haiti, was carried out with the purpose of increasing the control of women with preconceptional risk from January to June 2006. The statistical method Epinfo 6.0 was used. 160 patients were studied by means of the simple random method of a total of 346 women in fertil age with preconceptional risk from the area of the classified patients. It was determined that ignorance and fear of its use were the main causes of not using it as well as the lack of knowledge about the existence of a program of family plan at national scale in this country. It was achieved that the 78,1 percent of the patients included in the study used, at least, one contraceptive method.
