Apgar scale Explanation: Explanation: What is the Apgar scale? It's a simple and effective method used to measure your newborn's health and to determine if she needs any quick treatment. The method is quick, painless, and ultimately reassuring. In fact, your midwife may well make her assessment of your baby without you even noticing. Most babies are judged to be in fine health, but if your newborn does require medical help, you'll be glad to know it right away. The procedure has been a routine part of giving birth since anaesthesiologist Virginia Apgar developed it in 1952.

The assessment is given for the color of the newborn -red is better than bluish - , breathing and other characteristics. It is done twice, inmediately after the delivery and some time later which is supposed to improve. Normal first assessment of generally healthy baby is 7-8 and 8-9 on second assessment. Good luck! |

If there are problems with the baby an additional score is given at 10 minutes.
