Resumo: ABSTRACT This descriptive, quantitative study was performed with the objective to verify the knowledge, attitudes and practices of women living in a rural community regarding contraceptive methods. The Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Survey was applied to 50 clients of the family planning service of the Pedro Ribeiro de Russas (CE) Basic Health Unit, in July 2008. Most women were young, living with their partners and had a low level of education and income. Of all the women, 46 (92%) had an obstetrical history, 13 (26%) had had abortions/miscarriages, and 18 (36%) had a history of unwanted pregnancy. Oral contraception, condoms, the Ogino-Knaus table and the Intra-Uterine Device (IUD) were infrequently used. Fourteen (28%) women used some method of birth control, but used it inadequately. Their main sources of guidance were health professionals and friends. Their cultural and sociodemographic characteristics and their life circumstances affected their knowledge, attitudes and practices regarding contraceptive methods and, consequently, their reproductive history. Descriptors: Family Planning; Rural Population; Women’s Health; Nursing.

Se aplicó el Cuestionario Conocimiento, Actitud y Práctica (CAP) con 50 pacientes del servicio de planificación familiar de unidad básica de salud de Pedro Ribeiro de Russas-CE, en julio 2008. Predominancia de mujeres jóvenes, en pareja, con baja renta y escolaridad. Antecedentes obstétricos en 46 (92%) mujeres, abortos en 13 (26%) y 18 (36%) pacientes con historia de embarazo no deseado. El anticonceptivo oral, el preservativo, la tabla de Ogino-Knaus y el Dispositivo Intra-Uterino (DIU) fueron poco utilizados. Se destaca que 14 (28%) utilizaron algún método inadecuadamente. Las principales fuentes de orientación fueron profesionales de salud y amistades. Las características culturales, sociodemográficas y las circunstancias experimentadas influyeron en el conocimiento, actitud y práctica de métodos anticonceptivos y, consecuentemente, en la historia reproductiva.
