DISEASE CONDITION

HYPEREMESIS GRAVIDERUM

INTRODUCTION

Hyperemesis gravidarum is a condition characterized by severe nausea, vomiting, weight loss,


and electrolyte disturbance. Mild cases are treated with dietary changes, rest, and antacids. More
severe cases often require a stay in the hospital so that the mother can receive fluid and nutrition
through an intravenous line (IV). DO NOT take any medications to solve this problem without
first consulting your health care provider.

DEFINITION:It is severe type of vomiting of pregnancy which has got deleterious effect on the
health of the mother and day to day activity.
INCIDENCE: There has been marked fall in the incidence during the last 30 years. It is now a
rarity in hospital practices. Thr reason are better application of the family planning, reduced the
no of unplanned pregnancy. Early visit to the antenatal visits

CAUSES
excessive vomiting is caused by a rise in hormone levels.
 it is more common in first trimester
 younger age
 low body mass
 history of motion
 Fmily history it is more common in unplanned pregnancy

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

 When vomiting is severe, it may result in the following:


 Loss of 5% or more of pre-pregnancy body weight
 Dehydration, causing ketosis, and constipation
 Nutritional disorders, such as vitamin B1 (thiamine) deficiency, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
deficiency or vitamin B12 (cobalamin) deficiency
 Metabolic imbalances such as metabolic ketoacidosis or thyrotoxicosis
 Physical and emotional stress
 Difficulty with activities of daily living
 Symptoms can be aggravated by hunger, fatigue, prenatal vitamins (especially those
containing iron), and diet. Many women with HG are extremely sensitive to odors in their
environment; certain smells may exacerbate symptoms.
 Excessive salivation, also known as sialorrhea gravidarum, is another symptom
experienced by some women.

TREATMENT

Anti emetic drug promethazine- 25 mg or prochlorperazine 5 mg, twice a day I/M.


Metoclopramide –it stimulates gastric and intestinal mortality without stimulating secretion.
Metoclopramide is also used and relatively well tolerated.

Ondansetron may be beneficial, however, there are some concerns regarding an association
with palate, and there is little high-quality data. in the placenta and may be used in the treatment
of hyperemesis gravidarum after 12 weeks.

Nutritional supplements – vitamin 100mg daily, vit B6 , Vit C are also given in some cases.

Fluids- the amount of fluid to be infused in 24 hrs is approximately 3litters in which half os
dextrose 5% and half in ringer lactate.
After IV rehydration is completed, patients typically begin to tolerate frequent small liquid or
bland meals.
After rehydration, treatment focuses on managing symptoms to allow normal intake of food.
However, cycles of hydration and dehydration can occur, making continuing care necessary.
Home care is available in the form of a peripherally-inserted central catheter (PICC) line for
hydration and nutrition.
Home treatment is often less expensive and reduces the risk for a hospital-acquired
infection compared with long-term or repeated hospitalization.
Alternative medicine

The use of ginger products may be helpful, but evidence of effectiveness is limited and
inconsistent, though three recent studies support ginger over placebo.

NURSING DIAGNOSIS (Priority Wise):
 Fluid volume deficit related to excessive vomiting as evidenced by physical examination
& Intake output chart
 Imbalance nutrition: less than body requirement related to loss of appetite as evidenced
by less body weight
 Anxiety related to hospitalization as evidence by her facial experience
 Hopelessness related to life threatening disease as evidence by while communicating with
patient
 Knowledge deficit regarding disease condition as evidenced by conversation.
 Risk for complications related to alteration in normal fluid level

Short term goals:


 To relieve the headache induced by excessive vomiting.
 To maintain normal nutritional status
 To prevent the risk for infection

Long term goals


 To maintain the normal fluid level
 To relieve anxiety related to hospitalization
 To provide knowledge related to condition
