Dear Linda, We follow the same protocol...but little more aggressive with regards to the maternal resuscitation and work-up as the pregnant woman deteriorates quite rapidly and may need stiffer supports + early termination of pregnancy to optimize organ supports.
Sepsis with superimposed pre-eclampsia / HELLP can complicate clinical presentation and fluid management (prone for pulmonary edema). Usually requires a multidisciplinary team approach!
