To determine if the Silverman Andersen respiratory severity score, which is assessed by physical exam, within 1?h of birth is associated with elevated carbon dioxide level and/or the need for increased respiratory support. Prospective cohort study including 140 neonates scored within 1?h of birth. We report respiratory scores and their association with carbon dioxide and respiratory support within 24?h. Carbon dioxide level correlated with respiratory score (n?=?33, r?=?0.35, p?=?0.045). However, mean carbon dioxide for patients with score <5 vs. =5 did not differ significantly (56 vs. 67, p?=?0.095). Patients with respiratory scores =5 had respiratory support increased within 24?h more often than those with scores <5 (79% vs. 28%, p?
