Abstract
Ptyalism affects few pregnant women. Those who suffer from it, however, find it to be a little-known, but major irritant. This article presents several possible etiologies and discusses some vexatious cases of ptyalism. Nursing interventions are also offered. More nursing research must be conducted so that nurses can better understand this problem.Entities:
