About APGAR Score

What is APGAR?

The APGAR score was developed by Dr. Virginia Apgar in 1952 to quickly evaluate a newborn's health immediately after birth. It is typically assessed at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth.

When is it used?

The score helps medical staff quickly assess if a baby needs immediate medical care. It's not meant to predict long-term health outcomes but rather to guide immediate care decisions.
