[Educational strategy addressed to nurses in primary care for infertility: an intervention study].
The objective was to assess the impact of an educational strategy approaching infertility assistance; and verify practices introduced into the daily work of the participants after this intervention. Research-action developed with 11 nurses from the Family Health Strategy, in Fortaleza-CE, through the reading of a brochure in a "circle of conversation." Data were collected in August and October 2010, before, immediately after and 60 days after the intervention. An increase in the levels of knowledge was noted immediately after the intervention, when all participants had a "more than good" or "very good" level of knowledge, leaving behind the "little" and "good" levels rated before the intervention; at 60 days, a "good" level of knowledge was noted again, showing a relative decrease in knowledge. There was self-recognition of the ability to introduce practices into the daily work after the intervention, confirming the positive impact thereof
