This chapter explores the physiological mechanisms underlying hypoxemia, such as shunt and dead space, while detailing the symptoms in patients with interstitial lung disease. It emphasizes practical management strategies, including the use of non-rebreather masks and positive pressure ventilation, to effectively treat refractory hypoxemia.
In this episode, we break down a practical bedside approach to hypoxemia. We clarify the difference between hypoxemia (low oxygen in the blood) and hypoxia (low oxygen at the tissue level), and walk through the major causes of hypoxemia that you need to recognize quickly at the bedside.
Mastering the basics of hypoxemia helps you recognize dangerous physiology early β before your patient crashes. Keep in mind the four types of hypoxia and the five major causes of hypoxemia.
