The nurse receives a report from labor and delivery on an infant and mother couplet. which reported apgar score will the nurse prioritize for close observation for the entire transition period?
No. The mother needs full support from the nurse during the transition period but APGAR test (Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration) is done only twice to a baby. The first- one minute after birth and the second, 5 minutes after.
