On scene, you are by the side of a 3-week-old male who was born prematurely and has an apnea monitor on. His mother states that she was awakened by the alarm and when she went to check on the baby, he was awake and crying. Assessment reveals him to be resting quietly in his mother's arms. The airway is patent and respirations adequate. Vital signs are pulse, 136 beats/min; respirations, 28 breaths/min; and SpO2, 99% on room air. Since the local emergency department was busy when you were there dropping off a patient about an hour ago, it would be appropriate to:

A) Watch the baby for 15 additional minutes and get a refusal of care if he remains stable B) Provide high-concentration oxygen and immediate transport to the hospital C) Recognize a monitor malfunction and help make arrangements for a new one D) Continue assessment of the baby, treat any problems found, and initiate transport
