ABSTRACT
Cesarean deliveries for NRFHT and Apgar scores of <7 at five minutes occurs in a significantly greater number of women if the AFI is 5 compared to controls (25). Both the Apgar score <7 at five minutes and cesarean delivery for NRFHT are subjective evaluations and can be influenced by a number of factors. The most objective assessment, umbilical arterial pH, has not been linked with an AFI 5.0 (25).
