A 39-year-old man with severe dehydration requires IV fluid therapy to treat his condition. The patient is conscious, alert, and oriented to person, place, time, and event. You should:

A) ask him if you can start an IV and explain the reason for the IV as well as the potential risks of IV therapy. B) tell the patient that you are going to start an IV on him in order to replenish his body with lost fluid and electrolytes. C) start the IV to quickly restore his body fluid balance and then explain to the patient why you started the IV line. D) establish the IV line based on the law of implied consent, because his condition has impaired his decision-making capacity.
