Rize Bölgesindeki Gebelerde Emesis Gravidarum Prevalansı

Abstract

Objective: Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) are frequently encountered in pregnancy and can lead to serious maternal and fetal complications if neglected. This study aims to determine the frequency of NVP and related factors in Rize. Material and Methods: In this prospective study, the severity and frequency of NVP were determined by scoring pregnant women between 5-20 weeks of gestation, using the Pregnancy-Unique Quantification of Emesis and Nausea (PUQE) scoring system. Pregnant women with a PUQUE score below 7 were defined as the mild NVP group, and a score of 7 and above was defined as the moderate and severe NVP group. Demographic data and blood electrolyte levels were compared between the two groups. Results: A total of 221 pregnant women were included. The frequency of moderate-severe NVP was found to be 10% (n = 22). The frequency of hyperemesis gravidarum was 2% (n=4). The average body mass index of pregnant women with moderate-severe NVP symptoms was found to be higher than that of pregnant women with mild symptoms (p<0.001). The average blood sodium and potassium levels of pregnant women with moderate-severe NVP were found to be lower (p=0.003 and <0.001). Conclusion: The frequency of NVP in Rize province is similar to the literature. Increased body mass index may be associated with the frequency of NVP. Electrolyte imbalances may occur in the blood of these pregnant women. For this reason, all pregnant women should be carefully evaluated in terms of NVP, and treatments should be planned to eliminate electrolyte imbalances in patients.
