The Apgar score is based on a total score of 1 to 10. The higher the score, the better the baby is doing after birth. A score of 7, 8, or 9 is normal and is a sign that the newborn is in good health. A score of 10 is very unusual, since almost all newborns lose 1 point for blue hands and feet, which is normal for after birth.
Virginia Apgar, an obstetrical anesthesiologist and professor at Columbia University, created the Apgar score in 1952. She was interested in studying the effects of anesthesia given to laboring mothers on their newborn babies. As part of her research, she developed the Apgar score. Although the score was named after its creator, APGAR is also an acronym for the different areas evaluated that make up the score: Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity and Respiration. Each area receives a score of 0, 1 or 2, and all categories are totaled for a final score.
