Spanish to English Medical Medical (general) Professional responsibili
Es preciso el previo consentimiento escrito para realizar cualquier intervención, excepto que: la no intervención suponga un riesgo para la salud pública. Cuando no esté capacitado para tomar decisiones. Cuando la urgencia no permita demoras.

I think US EN would use the positive statement, for clarity. Something along the lines of "When the condition requires immediate treatment."
http://www.childrenshospital.org/clinicalservices/Site1872/m... "If your child's condition requires immediate treatment, you will be told to come to the Emergency Room at Children's Hospital Boston for evaluation."

"Warrants" is an excellent choice! I like it better than "requires". Thanks!
