In 1953 VIRGINIA APGAR was the first to introduce clinical scoring of the newborn [1]. '>The scoring System she introduced is now being used in almost every country. As with other similar clinical classification methods her System has the disadvantage of providing no exact measurable value and thus is prone to subjective influences. The co-author of this article introduced fetal blood analysis [2]; he recommended as early as 1965 that — supplementary to this biochemical assessment of the fetus — in addition to the clinical scoring, the pH-value in the umbilical artery blood be measured as a further parameter for the condition of the newborn [3]. To obtain a better over-all view of the judgement of the newborn we split together with WULF [4] the clinical and the acidity score into groups (Fig. 2). Since 1960 this acidity scoring has been employed at our clinic in all cases at risk in which fetal blood analysis (FBA) has been carried out; thus we have today a large number of newborn which have been observed in this manner (Tab. I). The percentage of fetuses observed by FBA in 1961 was only 5.1%, rising to about 50% in the last years (Tab. I). The reason for this increase was that the indication for FBA was broadened from year to year by increasingly intensive methods of diagnosis, cardiotocography in particular. At first we evaluated this large group of cases, to determine how many of the infants, supervised by using FBA, were born in an unsatisfactory Curriculum vitae
