PAM infants were more likely to have Apgar scores &lt;7 at 5 min of age (1.76, 95% CI 1.16 to 2.67, p&lt;0.01). Asian infants had lower birth weight (mean\u00b1SD 44.7\u00b127.9, p&lt;0.001) and head circumference percentiles (47.8\u00b129.0, p&lt;0.001), were more likely to be small for gestational age (1.53, 95% CI 1.25 to 1.88, p&lt;0.001), less likely to have hyaline membrane disease (0.78, 95% CI 0.68 to 0.90, p&lt;0.001) but had a higher risk of severe retinopathy of prematurity (1.52, 95% CI 1.11 to 2.07, p&lt;0.01).

Of concern is the risk of low Apgar scores in PAM infants and non-tertiary births of indigenous infants.
