What is the purpose of the Apgar score?

The Apgar score is a rapid assessment used to evaluate a newborn's physical condition and determine if immediate medical intervention is required.

How do I use the `compute_apgar_at_interval` tool?

Provide the scores (0, 1, or 2) for heart rate, respiratory effort, muscle tone, reflex irritability, and skin color. The tool will return the total score, clinical classification, and recommended action.

Can I compare scores from different time intervals?

Yes, use the `compare_apgar_intervals` tool by providing the 1-minute and 5-minute total scores to see if the infant's condition is improving, stable, or declining.

The Apgar Score Calculator is a clinical assessment tool designed to evaluate the health of a newborn immediately after birth. By analyzing five physiological parameters--heart rate, respiratory effort, muscle tone, reflex irritability, and skin color--the tool provides a standardized score at 1-minute and 5-minute intervals. Use compute_apgar_at_interval to calculate total scores and clinical recommendations, compare_apgar_intervals to track health trends (improving, stable, or declining), and get_parameter_reference to understand the specific clinical observations for each score value.
