A 26-year-old primigravida mother was admitted to the emergency department in early labor. The nurse called the on-call obstetrician to provide an update using the SBAR tool. The nurse informed the doctor that the mother was contracting regularly and her cervix had dilated to 4 cm. The nurse recommended transferring the mother to the labor room and starting oxytocin. The nurse asked the doctor if any other tests or treatment were needed, and how to contact him going forward.
