I can only go by the doctrines in most religions that put health and safety above dogma.
Most religions allow medical personnel to work on the Sabbath to save lives and ease suffering.
Most religions allow adherents to disregard dietary laws or forgo fasts if such actions risk lives.
I can't believe that the core Islamic faith would have an issue with this. Orthodox Jewish women have similar restrictions and I have never heard of this as an issue.
