Answer & Explanation
The correct answer is Option B: Leave the AED attached to the casualty..
Once an AED is attached and signs of life return, you should leave the pads in place and keep the AED connected. The device may need to continue monitoring for cardiac rhythm stability, and the casualty may require further shocks if they re-arrest.
