Despite popular belief, exercise while pregnant does not initiate labor, or preterm labor. Exercise is associated with delivering closer to the due date. Further, maternal exercise is associated with either no change, or shorter labor and delivery overall. Women who exercised had less complications during labor and delivery than those who did not exercise. More importantly, measures of the fetu...
OBJECTIVE Primary care asthma management is often not compatible with national evidence-based guidelines. The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility and impact of the Asthma APGAR tools to enhance implementation of asthma guideline-compatible management in primary care practices. SUBJECTS Twenty-four primary care practices across the US. METHODS This is a mixed methods study....
BACKGROUND Use of antidepressants during pregnancy has been associated with a low Apgar score in infants but a contribution from the underlying depressive disorder might influence this association. AIMS To estimate the effects of maternal depression and use of antidepressants during pregnancy on low Apgar scores (<7) 5 min after birth. METHOD Register study on all pregnant women in Denmark ...
In 1952 Virginia Apgar, a physician at the Sloane Women?s Hospital in New York City, New York, created the Apgar score as a method of evaluating newborn infants? health to determine if they required medical intervention. The score included five separate categories, including heart rate, breathing rate, reaction to stimuli, muscle activity, and color. An infant received a score from zero to two ...
BACKGROUND Since an objective description is essential to determine infant's postnatal condition and efficacy of interventions, two scores were suggested in the past but weren't tested yet: The Specified-Apgar uses the 5 items of the conventional Apgar score; however describes the condition regardless of gestational age (GA) or resuscitative interventions. The Expanded-Apgar measures interventi...
OBJECTIVE To determine the accuracy of antepartum Amniotic Fluid Index (AFI) of < or = 5 cm as a predictor of adverse outcome at birth in high-risk pregnancies. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Obstetrics and Gynaecology Unit I, Holy Family Hospital and Railway Teaching Hospital Complex, Rawalpindi, from February 2003 to January 2004. METHODOLOGY One hundred...
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to determine the correlation of Apgar score with asphyxial hepatic injury and neonatal mortality in moderately and severely asphyxiated newborns. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a secondary analysis of our prospective observational case-controlled study. Sixteen neonates with severe birth asphyxia (five-minute Apgar ≤3) were compared with either 54 modera...
Comparing the Asthma APGAR system and the Asthma Control Test™ in a multicenter primary care sample.
OBJECTIVE To compare asthma control assessment using the Asthma APGAR system, a tool developed by primary care clinicians, in a multicenter primary care sample with the Asthma Control Test (ACT™)/Childhood Asthma Control Test (CACT™), a tool developed by asthma specialists. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a substudy of a multicenter, randomized, controlled pragmatic trial that tests the effectiv...
BACKGROUND Addiction in pregnant women causes complications such as abortion, asphyxia and cerebral and physical problems. APGAR score assesses vital signs and birth weight and represents the physical and brain growth of newborns. In this study, the effects of opium addiction in mothers on birth weight and APGAR scores of neonates were discussed. METHODS This study analytic, descriptive study...
BACKGROUND Ephedrine, unlike phenylephrine, has a dose-related propensity to depress fetal pH during spinal anesthesia during cesarean section. A low arterial umbilical cord pH has a strong association with neonatal mortality and morbidity. The purpose of this retrospective study was to investigate influences of vasopressor change on Apgar scores and adverse neonatal outcomes in cesarean sectio...
