Hypoxemia

Hypoxemia is a medical condition characterized by low levels of oxygen in the blood. It can occur due to various reasons, such as lung diseases, heart problems, or high altitudes, and can lead to symptoms like shortness of breath, confusion, or fatigue. The body relies on adequate oxygen levels for proper function, so when they drop, it can affect various organs and overall health. Treatment often focuses on improving oxygen availability, which may include supplemental oxygen or addressing the underlying cause of the condition. Prompt medical attention is essential if hypoxemia is suspected.
