The nurse will assess the infant for <u>signs of drug toxicity</u>.
Some drugs have a narrow therapeutic index, which means that there is only a small difference between the minimum effective concentrations and the minimum toxic concentrations in the blood. With such drugs, small increases in dose or in blood/serum concentrations could lead to toxic effects.
Nephrotoxicity can show signs of other types of decreased kidney function, such as decreased urination, swelling from fluid retention and high blood pressure. In some patients, nephrotoxicity can affect other body systems such as the liver or the skin and show signs in those areas as well.

Jaundice</h2>
Because of elevated bilirubin levels, jaundice, also known as icterus, causes a yellowish or greenish coloring of the skin and sclera. In adults, jaundice is usually a symptom of underlying illnesses such as aberrant heme metabolism, liver malfunction, or biliary-tract obstruction. Jaundice is uncommon in adults, but it is frequent in babies, with an estimated 80% of them experiencing it during their first week of life. Itching, pale feces, and dark urine are the three most prevalent symptoms of jaundice.
In this client's case, the abnormal pancreatic neoplasm has obstructed the common bile duct, which causes the bile to accumulate in the liver and thus rises bilirubin levels in the blood.
