Megan is caring for a neonate. Megan assesses the possibility of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) because the premie is exhibiting the generalized assessment of:
 
  1. Hypertonia, tachycardia, and metabolic alkalosis.
   2. Abdominal distention, temperature instability, and bloody stools.
   3. Hypertension, apnea, and ruddy skin color.
   4. No residual feedings and increased urinary output.

1. Metabolic alkalosis cannot be seen in a generalized assessment.
2. These are the cardinal signs of a neonate with a generalized assessment of necrotizing enterocolitis.
3. Hypotension usually occurs, along with the neonate appearing gray or pale in color.
4. Feedings will have a high residual and a decreased urinary output when necrotizing enterocolitis is developing.
