“…Hatcher et al 15 ressaltam que uma variedade de pessoas pode informar sobre planejamento familiar e oferecer métodos anticoncepcionais. Em diversos países, além do médico, enfermeiros, auxiliares e técnicos de enfermagem, agentes de saúde, parteiras tradicionais, educadores, membros da comunidade e usuários experientes de métodos anticoncepcionais oferecem, habitualmente, serviços de planejamento familiar.…”

IntroduçãoA assistência ao planejamento familiar é oferecida, atualmente, no Brasil, pelas equipes do Programa Saúde da Família (PSF), um modelo de política pública de saúde que traz a proposta do trabalho em equipe, de vinculação dos profissionais com a comunidade e de valorização e incentivo à participação comunitária. Corresponde a uma das sete áreas prioritárias de intervenção na atenção básica, definidas na Norma Operacional da Assistência 1 .O PSF tem o propósito de reverter a forma de oferta da assistência à saúde, ou seja, incorporando ações coletivas de cunho promocional e preventivo a substituir progressivamente o atendimento individualizado, curativo, de alto custo e de baixo impacto. Neste aspecto, é imprescindível o estabelecimento de parcerias intersetoriais com educação, ação social, trabalho, outras instâncias governamentais e a sociedade civil 2 . No Estado do Ceará, Brasil, o PSF teve implantação iniciada em 1994, oferecendo cobertura de 56% da população no período deste estudo, com equipes atuando nos seus 184 municípios 3 .As equipes do PSF são constituídas por um médico, um enfermeiro, um auxiliar de enfermagem e seis agentes comunitários de saúde (ACS), co-responsáveis pela saúde de cerca de mil famí-lias, o que corresponde à média de 3.450 a 4.500 pessoas 2 .ARTIGO ARTICLE

“…These pregnancy rates compare favorably with many other contraceptive methods, especially barrier methods, withdrawal, and periodic abstinence which have typical use failure rates in the range of 14% to 40% [9] and which are logical alternatives for women with infrequent sex. Moreover, when women are using ECPs on a premeditated basis, they ought to be able to start the EC regimen within an hour of intercourse, so the more favorable figures on the far right column might be the more realistic.…”

“…The data on pregnancy prevention are relatively clear, with theoretical annual failure rates (ie, pregnancy occurring during a year of use when the condom is used consistently and correctly) estimated to be 2%. 47 Actual failure rates range from 5% to 20%, depending on the age of the users. 47 Although failure rates are higher for adolescents than for older women, highest failure rates are reported to occur in women 20 to 24 years old; frequency of use and levels of fertility may play a role in these findings.…”

ABSTRACT. The use of condoms as part of the prevention of unintended pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) in adolescents is evaluated in this policy statement. Sexual activity and pregnancies decreased slightly among adolescents in the 1990s, reversing trends that were present in the 1970s and 1980s, while condom use among adolescents increased significantly. These trends likely reflect initial success of primary and secondary prevention messages aimed at adolescents. Rates of acquisition of STDs and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) among adolescents remain unacceptably high, highlighting the need for continued prevention efforts and reflecting the fact that improved condom use can decrease, but never eliminate, the risk of acquisition of STDs and HIV as well as unintended pregnancies. While many condom education and availability programs have been shown to have modest effects on condom use, there is no evidence that these programs contribute to increased sexual activity among adolescents. These trends highlight the progress that has been made and the large amount that still needs to be accomplished.ABBREVIATIONS. STD, sexually transmitted disease; HIV, human immunodeficiency virus; CDC, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
