Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

A
The nurse should be concerned about increased serum amylase triglycerides and a decreased se-rum calcium, which are symptoms of pancreatitis, the major adverse effect of didanosine.
These other laboratory test results and assessment findings are not consistent with pancreatitis and are not a concern for the nurse.
