Abstract :
The most effective measure for assessing the health of newborns is using the Apgar score. The Apgar score is used globally to evaluate the health outcomes of newborns immediately after birth and to diagnose birth asphyxia for immediate resuscitation in premature and full-term babies. The aim of research was to determine the effect of delaying umbilical cord cutting on the Apgar score of newborn. The research design used a quasi experiment, namely a type of research which had a control group and an experimental group that was not chosen randomly and used a post-test only with control group design, the number of samples used was 28 babies with total sampling. The results obtained were the Apgar value in the fifth minute of the intervention group was with a mean value of 7.64 and a standard deviation of 0.929 with a min max value (6-9), while the Apgar value of the fifth minute of the control group was with an average value of 6.57 and a standard deviation of 0.788 with a value of min max (5-8), the average difference between the intervention group and the control group is 1.07. There is a significant effect of delaying umbilical cord cutting on the Apgar score of newborns at RSIA Sitti Khadijah with a P value of 0.015 < 0.05. The results can be used by mothers and families to delay procedures for cutting the umbilical cord of newborns, as an effort to increase the Apgar score of newborns. Keywords: Apgar Score, Newborn Infants, Delay in Cutting the Umbilical Cord.
