When the cardiac monitor is finally applied, the patient is in asystole. The patient is transported but is pronounced dead upon arrival at the hospital. Which of the following statements regarding this scenario is correct?

A) The delay in evaluating the patient's cardiac rhythm constitutes a breach of duty and could be proven to be the proximate cause of her death. B) Simple negligence can be established because of the delay in applying the cardiac monitor, but your inaction did not proximately cause her death. C) Your inaction reflects gross negligence and it easily could be established that the patient would have survived if the cardiac monitor had been applied earlier. D) Although there was a delay in applying the cardiac monitor, you cannot be held liable, because effective CPR was performed throughout the resuscitation attempt.
