Australas Emerg Care
January 2025
Department of Paramedicine, Monash University, 47-49 Moorooduc Hwy, Frankston, Victoria 3199, Australia; Department of Paramedics, Jordan University of Science and Technology, Irbid, Jordan; Duke Medical School, National University of Singapore, Singapore.

With limited prenatal care, language barriers, and socioeconomic challenges, the patient required intubation and intensive care unit (ICU) transfer for management. Extensive workup ruled out common causes, and the likely diagnosis was an atypical presentation of preeclampsia.
