Apgar score is a quick test performed on a baby at 1 and 5 minutes after his birth. It determines how well the baby survived the birthing process and how well he is doing outside the mother's womb.

The baby is examined and scored from 0-2 using the following categories: Breathing effort, heart rate, Muscle tone, Reflexes and Skin color.

Baby’s observed condition and their corresponding scores:

Skin: He is centrally pink with pale extremities (2)

Heart Rate: heart rate of 110 (2)

Reflexes: actively crying (2)

Muscle tone: moving (2)

Breathing Effort: crying (2)
