Case Study: A 25-year-old female Marine patient who is 32 weeks pregnant is admitted to your ED with full-blown eclampsia. She is unconscious and there is no family or significant others nearby to ask for consent to treat her. You know, having worked on the OB floor in the past, that the only solution for eclampsia is to deliver the baby when other interventions have failed. The OB on-call is not answering pages and the ED physician has not attempted to get a consultation with another OB physician.
Describe how you will proceed in advocating for this patient?
