to evaluate knowledge about sexual health, with blind people, before and after educational intervention.
action research conducted with 58 blind people enrolled in a philanthropic educational institution. A form with sociodemographic and knowledge variables about Sexually Transmitted Infections was used. The Chi-square and Fisher tests were performed.
men presented higher frequency of alcoholism (p <0.001) and illicit drugs (p = 0.006). It was found that they used a male condom more frequently than women using a female condom (p = 0.003), although they had more knowledge about the prevention of Sexually Transmitted Infections (p = 0.006). Among these infections, Trichomonas vaginalis (52.4%) was more frequent. Knowledge gaps on risk factors and safe sex were identified. After the intervention, an increase in the knowledge about sexual health was detected.
the educational intervention, in the light of problematizing pedagogy, (re) constructed the knowledge on sexual health, empowering the participants regarding the prevention of Sexually Transmitted Infections. Therefore, it is necessary that nurses carry out educational interventions with this clientele, aiming to soften deficits of knowledge about the thematic in screen.
评估教育干预前后盲人对性健康的认知情况。
对一所慈善教育机构的58名盲人进行行动研究。使用了一份包含性传播感染的社会人口学和知识变量的表格。进行了卡方检验和费舍尔检验。
男性酗酒（p<0.001）和使用违禁药物的频率更高（p = 0.006）。发现男性比使用女用避孕套的女性更频繁地使用男用避孕套（p = 0.003），尽管他们对性传播感染的预防有更多了解（p = 0.006）。在这些感染中，阴道毛滴虫感染（52.4%）更为常见。发现了在风险因素和安全性行为方面的知识差距。干预后，检测到性健康知识有所增加。
基于问题化教学法的教育干预（重新）构建了性健康知识，增强了参与者预防性传播感染的能力。因此，护士有必要对这类人群开展教育干预，旨在弥补该主题筛查方面的知识不足。
