Baby’s Care 

Immediately after your baby is born, a UTMB Health pediatrician will perform a brief physical exam to make sure your bundle of joy is healthy. Another health assessment called an Apgar test is then performed by the doctor and nurses to evaluate the following:

  • Activity; muscle tone
  • Pulse rate
  • Grimace; reflex irritability
  • Appearance; skin color
  • Respiration

If your little one needs advanced care, UTMB Health has some of the most experienced neonatologists and pediatric specialists in the region. Since UTMB is an integrated health care network, this means your baby’s doctors and providers work closely together to ensure your baby receives the right care.
