To evaluate the association and utility of low 1- and 5-min Apgar scores to identify short-term morbidities in a large newborn cohort.
15,542 infants >22 weeks gestation from a single center were included. Clinical data and low Apgar scores were analyzed for significance to ten short-term outcomes and were used to construct Receiver Operating Characteristic Curves and the AUC calculated for ten outcomes.
A low Apgar score related to all (1-min) or most (5-min) outcomes by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Including any of the 4 low Apgar scores only improved the clinical factor AUC by 0.9% ± 2.7% (±SD) and was significant in just 5 of the 40 score/outcome scenarios.
The contribution of a low Apgar score for identifying risk of short-term morbidity does not appear to be clinically significant.
评估低 1 分钟和 5 分钟 Apgar 评分与识别大新生儿队列短期发病率的关联和效用。
纳入了来自单个中心的 15542 名胎龄超过 22 周的婴儿。分析临床数据和低 Apgar 评分与 10 种短期结局的相关性,并用于构建受试者工作特征曲线,计算 10 种结局的 AUC。
单变量和多变量逻辑回归分析表明,低 Apgar 评分与所有(1 分钟)或大多数(5 分钟)结局相关。仅包括任何 4 个低 Apgar 评分仅使临床因素 AUC 提高了 0.9%±2.7%(±标准差),并且仅在 40 个评分/结局场景中的 5 个中具有统计学意义。
低 Apgar 评分对于识别短期发病率风险的贡献似乎没有临床意义。
