APGAR Newborn Assessment Score Scale Test Made Easy w/ NCLEX Practice Questions

APGAR newborn assessment score scale (made easy) is a quick test used to assess the status of a newborn after birth. APGAR was created by (and named after) Virginia Apgar. It is used to assess a newborn at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth. If the score is 6 or less the newborn will be assessed again at 10 minutes after birth. The word APGAR is a mnemonic for the categories assessed during the APGAR score assessment. The letters of APGAR stand for the following: Appearance (skin color), Pulse (heart rate), Grimace (reflex irritability), Activity (muscle tone), Respiratory (effort). Each category is scored 0-2 and the higher the score the better the baby is doing. A score of ten is the highest score a newborn can score. For the NCLEX exam and lecture exams, the nursing student should be familiar with the nursing interventions for a newborn based on an APGAR score. APGAR scores 7-10 require normal post-delivery care, scores 4-6 require some resuscitation measures such as oxygen/suction and stimulating the newborn, and scores 0-3 require full resuscitation measures. In the video, I work two NCLEX style questions about the APGAR assessment so you can practice with me. Don't forget to take the quiz and check out my other maternity NCLEX review lectures.

Hi Sarah, thank you for all the informative videos. I just finished my first semester of nursing school and I couldn't have done it without your videos! I have a question for you, I'm in search of a good quality stethoscope and was hoping you can recommend one for me.

[@RegisteredNurseRN]

Hello :) I'm so happy my videos helped you during your first semester of nursing school. Hopefully, they can help you all the way up to NCLEX and when you become a nurse. I actually have a a video series on the top stethoscopes I recommend for students that may help you out (kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYHOd4add8R1hq8) There are many great stethoscopes on the market like Littmann, Prestige, etc. Personally, I like Prestige but that is me. Many people go with Littmann....a great one for students is the Littmann SE II Classic. I hope that helps :)
