ICU Handoff

This is a 28-yo female G1P0 admitted at 32 weeks for ovarian torsion, s/p partial bowel resection and oophorectomy. This surgery was complicated by a crash C-Section for absent fetal heart tones. The husband knows that the baby didn’t make it, but the patient is still waking up from anesthesia and doesn’t know this yet.
