Abstract

Clinical Efficacy of modified Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis (PUQE score) in managemenet of emesis of pregnancy. Aims: To study PUQE score in ANC patients till 12 weeks, attending OPD or emergency department. To triage the patient as mild, moderate and severe case and to treat them accordingly. Settings and Design: Study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology in a tertiary care hospital. An Observational analytical study.
