Answer:

The answer is C. Sudden cardiac death.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ventricular fibrillation that makes the left ventricle ineffective in pumping blood throughout the body can lead to sudden cardiac death. Because the heart does not work properly during ventricular fibrillation, it will lead to severe hypotension, loss of consciousness and sudden death. His emergency treatment is immediate defibrillation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
