Abstract (Original Language): 
Amaç: Planlanmamış gebeliklerin ve istemli abortusların önlenmesinde acil kontrasepsiyon kullanımı önemli rol oynayabilir. Bu çalışma, ebe ve hemşirelerin AK’ye ilişkin bilgi ve davranışlarını belirlemek amacıyla yapıldı. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel çalışmanın örneklemine, araştırmaya katılmaya istekli olan 100 ebe, 89 hemşire alındı. Çalışmanın verileri anket formu ile yüzyüze görüşme yöntemi kullanılarak toplandı. Bu çalışma 1-15 Şubat 2005 tarihleri arasında yapıldı. Bulgular: Hemşire ve ebelerin %46,6’sının acil kontrasepsiyonu işittiği belirlendi. Örnekleme alınan ebe ve hemşirelerin %74,1’i acil kontrasepsiyon için ne kullanıldığını bilmediğini, %77.2’si acil kontrasepsiyona başlama zamanı hakkında bilgisi olmadığını belirtti. Hemşire ve ebeler arasında acil kontrasepsiyonu kullanma oranı %4,2 bulundu. Katılımcıların çalıştıkları kurum (p=0.000) ve mesleklerinin (p=0.000) acil kontrasepsiyonu işitmelerini etkilediği ve farkların önemli olduğu belirlendi. Sonuç: Acil kontrasepsiyona ilişkin ebe ve hemşirelerin bilgi ve davranışları yeterli değildi. Bu konuda, sağlık profesyonellerine bilgi, tutum ve davranış geliştirmek için eğitim programları hazırlanması gerekir. Sağlık profesyonellerinin bilgi, tutum ve davranışlarını içeren ileri araştırmalar önerilir.
