Question 1 of 5
After delivery, a newborn undergoes an Apgar assessment. What does this scoring system evaluate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The Apgar scoring system, developed by Virginia Apgar, an anesthesiologist, evaluates newborns based on five criteria: heart rate, respiratory effort, color, muscle tone, and reflex irritability. These parameters provide a quick and simple assessment of a newborn's overall condition and the need for immediate medical attention.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not encompass the essential elements evaluated by the Apgar scoring system.
