    Great, but leaves out the option of scoring skin color for a nonwhite baby!

      @ВалерийПелипенко The APGAR score is a quick assessment performed on a newborn at 1 and 5 minutes after birth to evaluate their overall health. It includes five criteria: Appearance (skin color), Pulse (heart rate), Grimace response (reflexes), Activity (muscle tone), and Respiration (breathing rate). Each criterion is scored from 0 to 2, with a maximum possible score of 10. This score helps determine if a newborn needs immediate medical care.

      @AlesandroDukagjini-u9x The APGAR score is a quick test given to newborns at 1 and 5 minutes after birth to evaluate their physical condition. It measures five areas: Appearance (skin color), Pulse, Grimace response (reflexes), Activity (muscle tone), and Respiration (breathing effort). Each area gets a score of 0 to 2, with a total possible score of 10. Higher scores indicate a healthier baby, while lower scores may require medical attention. 😊

      @LindaAnderson-g2z The Apgar score is a quick assessment performed on newborns immediately after birth to evaluate their physical condition and determine if urgent medical care is needed. It measures five criteria: Appearance (skin color), Pulse, Grimace (reflex response), Activity (muscle tone), and Respiration. Each category is scored from 0 to 2, with a maximum total score of 10. Scores are typically taken at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth to gauge the baby's health and adaptation to the environment.

      @JoslynJane-bv4is The Apgar score is a quick assessment tool used to evaluate the health of a newborn immediately after birth. It measures five criteria: Appearance (skin color), Pulse (heart rate), Grimace response (reflexes), Activity (muscle tone), and Respiration (breathing effort), each scored from 0 to 2. The total score helps determine whether a newborn needs medical attention. Robinson, Paul Miller, Shirley Thomas, and Elizabeth may refer to medical professionals, but their specific contributions or relevance to the Apgar score are unclear without additional context.

      @WildeMarshall The Apgar score is a quick assessment performed on newborn babies shortly after birth, typically at 1 minute and again at 5 minutes after delivery. It helps healthcare providers evaluate the baby's overall health and determine if any immediate medical intervention is needed. The score is based on five criteria, each scored from 0 to 2, with a maximum possible score of 10. The criteria are:
      1. **Appearance (Skin Color)**:
      - **0 points**: The baby’s entire body is blue or pale.
      - **1 point**: The body is pink, but the extremities (hands and feet) are blue.
      - **2 points**: The baby’s entire body is pink.
      2. **Pulse (Heart Rate)**:
      - **0 points**: No heartbeat.
      - **1 point**: Heart rate is fewer than 100 beats per minute.
      - **2 points**: Heart rate is at least 100 beats per minute.
      3. **Grimace Response (Reflex Irritability)**:
      - **0 points**: No response to stimulation.
      - **1 point**: Grimace or weak response to stimulation.
      - **2 points**: Vigorous cry or active response to stimulation.
      4. **Activity (Muscle Tone)**:
      - **0 points**: Limp or floppy muscles.
      - **1 point**: Some muscle tone; arms and legs might be slightly flexed.
      - **2 points**: Active motion; good muscle tone.
      5. **Respiration (Breathing Effort)**:
      - **0 points**: Not breathing.
      - **1 point**: Weak, irregular, or gasping breaths.
      - **2 points**: Strong, regular crying and breathing.
      **Interpreting the Scores**:
      - **7-10**: Generally normal; the baby is in good health.
      - **4-6**: Might require some medical intervention, such as oxygen or assistance with breathing.
      - **0-3**: Critical; immediate medical attention is needed.
      If you mentioned names like Thomas, Gary, Perez, Sharon, White, or another Sharon in relation to the Apgar score, it might be that you're referring to specific cases or individuals. If you have particular questions about how the Apgar score applies to a specific situation or need more detailed information, please let me know!
      Understanding the Apgar score is important for ensuring that newborns receive the care they need right after birth. If you have any further questions or need clarification on any aspect of the Apgar score, feel free to ask!
