A 28-year-old client has just given birth. At one minute the baby appears healthy, with the exception of bluish hands. Which of the following would the nurse midwife pronounce?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The Apgar score assesses appearance, pulse, grimace, activity, and respiration, with a maximum of 10. Bluish hands indicate acrocyanosis, common in newborns, deducting 1 point from appearance, resulting in a score of 9 if other parameters are normal. Option A is impossible, and C and D are too low for a healthy baby.
