Given that delay guarantees the patient’s death, emergency medicine’s doctrine of implied consent supports immediate life-saving intervention when a patient cannot consent and no surrogate is available. Beneficence and nonmaleficence favor acting: the risk of surgery is outweighed by the certainty of harm from inaction. Security protocols protect safety and trust, but rigid adherence here would directly cause preventable death; actions should be fully logged, with simultaneous notification to hospital leadership and authorities to preserve accountability. Negotiation with protesters is uncertain and time-consuming, making it an unsafe primary strategy in a time-critical crisis. This choice prioritizes the patient’s right to life while mitigating governance concerns through transparent documentation and alerts.
