Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 April 2006
Abstract
Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) is a term used to describe a wide spectrum of symptoms. At one end of the spectrum is the common, mild to moderate nausea and vomiting that is usually limited to the first trimester. At the other end of the spectrum are the intractable, severe symptoms of hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) that is associated with weight loss, dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and hospitalisation.
