MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Hypoxia is a state in which oxygen is not available in sufficient amounts at the tissue level to maintain adequate homeostasis; this can result from inadequate oxygen delivery to the tissues either due to low blood supply or low oxygen content in the blood (hypoxemia).

Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen saturation levels should be between 92% and 98% for an adult without an underlying respiratory condition. Lower than 92% is considered hypoxic.

Detailed explanation-3: -Breathing that’s too slow or shallow to meet the lungs’ need for oxygen. Either not enough blood flow to the lungs or not enough oxygen to the lungs. Trouble with oxygen getting into the bloodstream and the waste gas carbon dioxide getting out. A problem with the way blood flows in the heart.
