In Assessing the Immediate Condition of the Newborn After Birth

In assessing the immediate condition of the newborn after birth, a sample of cord blood may be a useful adjunct to the Apgar score. Cord blood is then tested for pH, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and base deficit or excess. Clinical situations that warrant this additional testing include (choose all that apply) :

A) Low 5 minute Apgar score.
B) IUGR.
C) Maternal thyroid disease.
D) Intrapartum fever.
E) Multiple gestation.
F) Abnormal fetal heart rate tracing.
G) None of the above
