Objective: To examine knowledge, attitudes and practice of physicians and nurses of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) regarding female urinary incontinence (UI). Methods: This study was performed in the 19 teams of FHS from a city in the interior of Sao Paulo state, which had 41 eligible professionals (22 physicians and 19 nurses). A self-application questionnaire with questions regarding knowledge, attitudes and practice of the professionals in the assistance to women with UI was developed and used. Results: Answered to the questionnaire 33 professionals (80% of the target population), being 15 physicians and 18 nurses. Most of the participants had an adequate level of knowledge related to propaedeutic clinics and considered that their attributions include diagnostic investigation and treatment of non-complicated UI. However, a large number of them did not know complementary tests and treatments for the initial management of UI in women, especially for Urgency UI. Regarding the practice, a significant amount of these professionals did not prescribe pelvic-floor strengthening exercises, perform popular education in health actions with women, nor promote permanent education within the health team in their working places. Conclusion: Deficits related to the diagnostic investigation and treatment of female UI identified suggest the requirement for permanent education and integration of matrix support teams to the FHS, in order to promote a more integrated care to the population. These teams can be from the Support Centre for Family Health (NASF) and/or from the partnership with local universities.
