When a child is born, it is immediately assigned an APGAR score from 0-10 to objectively determine its vitality. The 5 categories are scored 0, 1, or 2 with 0 being the worst and 2 being the best.

They are: Appearance (Is the skin a healthy non-bluish color), Pulse rate (is it greater than 100), Reflex (is the child irritated by stimulation), Muscle tone (does the child resist stretching of its limbs), and Breathing (does the child breath normally).

Apgar is the last name of the Doctor Who created this system.
