   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.
