ABSTRACT
The current study was designed to investigate the perinatal risk factors for low 1-min Apgar scores in term neonates. We retrospectively analyzed the maternal and neonatal clinical data of 10,550 infants who were born through vaginal delivery from 37 weeks 0 days to 41 weeks 6 days of single gestation from January 2013 to July 2018. Because the 1-min Apgar score reflects neonatal status at birth, we analyzed the risk factors for low (score <7) 1-min Apgar scores through logistic regression. Among these 10,550 neonates, 339 (3.2%) had low (score <7) 1-min Apgar scores. Among them, 321 (94.7%) were admitted to the neonatology department for further observation or treatment. Multivariate analysis revealed that educational background, body mass index, gestational age, pathological obstetrics, longer duration of the second stage of labor, forceps delivery or vacuum extraction, neonatal weight, neonatal sex, and meconium-stained amniotic fluid were independent risk factors for 1-min Apgar scores <7. Neonates who had low 1-min Apgar scores were more frequently admitted to the neonatology department for further observation or treatment. Early detection of risk factors and timely intervention to address these factors may improve neonatal outcomes at birth and reduce the rate of admission to the neonatology department.
