The<unk>  was devised in 1952 by Dr. Virginia<unk>  as a simple and repeatable method to quickly and summarily assess the health of newborn children immediately after childbirth. Virginia<unk>  was a pediatrician and anesthesiologist who developed the score to ascertain the effects of anaesthetic agents on neonates. The<unk>  is determined by evaluating the newborn baby on five simple criteria on a scale from zero to two and summing up the five values thus obtained. The resulting<unk>  ranges from zero to 10. The five criteria were used as a mnemonic learning aid.
