It resulted in a death. Homicide requires mens rea. The minimum mes rea for homicide is reckless disregard for human life. No level of mens rea, however, was in evidence here.

Negligent homicide is the killing of another person through gross negligence or without malice
Reckless disregard for human life is an element of that crime, which isn't in evidence. This case is analogous to the case of the ER doctor I described above.
The defendant acted, or failed to act appropriately in a dangerous situation, and that action or inaction caused the victim's death
