Rationale: In adults, overdose of acetaminophen causes liver damage. In addition, clients with liver disorders are at higher risk of experiencing hepatotoxicity with chronic acetaminophen use. The chest x-ray, the upper gastrointestinal x-ray results, and the electrocardiogram are not associated with acetaminophen overdose.
