This is one of the best explanations I have seen. I think that is so crazy of the acronym matches with the inventor's name.

APGAR Scoring System
Q001. A 29 year old G3P2 woman comes to the community hospital for delivery. She undergoes a cesarean section and delivers an 8lb 6oz baby boy. You are asked to evaluate the child after 1 minute. A towel is used to vigorously clean the newborn and in response the boy cries forcefully for 9 seconds. Upon inspection, the newborn has a pink chest, bluish arms, and blue legs. You auscultate a heart rate of 120 beats per minute. While evaluating the newborn, you notice he has flexes his arms and legs twice in a span of 20 seconds.
What is the appropriate APGAR score for this newborn child?

I love your videos! Please make a video for developmental milestones. Pretty please?? :)

[@LCFCTOGLORY]

I THINK IT SHOULD BE 7 AND ABOVE, NOT ONLY ABOVE 7 TO CALL IT NORMAL. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.

Shouldn't the 1 and 2 be switched around on the Pulse page?

[@zacharyfelder6604]

No it's basic math

[@studywithlei3737]

no, newborns and babies in general have a higher pulse than adults, it's the same thing with children!

[@rhude22]

if its less than 7 why wouldn't you reassess every 5 minutes?

[@relaxwithnature5876]
