BACKGROUND: Hyperemesis gravidarum during pregnancy affects almost all pregnant women and has a significant effect on quality of life, causing discomfort and interfering with daily activities, especially during the first trimester of pregnancy. Pharmacological action to reduce hyperemesis is ginger. Ginger can work by blocking receptors serotonin and causing an antiemetic effect on the gastrointestinal system, thereby reducing nausea and vomiting.
AIM: The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of ginger herbal drink in reducing the level of hyperemesis gravidarum in first trimester pregnant women.
METHODS: Design This study used a Quasy Experimental with control group with a pre- and post-test approach. Samples were taken with the Consecutive sampling technique. The sample in this study was 96 respondents who were divided into two groups, namely 48 experimental groups and 48 control groups. Measurements used a pregnancy unique quantification of emesis and nausea questionnaire to measure the severity of nausea and vomiting in 24 h. Measurement of hyperemesis level was measured every day for 7 days of the experiment. Data analysis used Wilcoxon rank test and Mann Whitney.
RESULTS: The average level of hyperemesis gravidarum before the intervention of ginger herbal drink in the intervention group was 2.2083 and 2.2292 in the control group with p value = 0.806 which means there was no difference in the average frequency of hyperemesis gravidarum while after being given the intervention, the average level of hyperemesis gravidarum in the intervention group was 3.4375 and 2.2917 in the control group with p value = 0.000, which means that there is a difference in the average frequency level of hyperemesis gravidarum in the intervention group and the control group after being given the intervention.
CONCLUSION: Ginger drink given to pregnant women in the first trimester can reduce the level of hyperemesis so that pregnant women do not experience excessive nausea and vomiting. Ginger drinks can be recommended as an herbal treatment that can be consumed by pregnant women with hyperemesis gravidarum.Downloads
