Management and Treatments
Effective management of hypoxemia focuses on improving oxygen levels in the blood and addressing the root cause of the oxygen deficiency. Treatment options are tailored to the individual’s specific condition and the severity of their symptoms.
Supplemental Oxygen
One of the primary treatments for hypoxemia is the administration of supplemental oxygen through a nasal cannula or a mask to boost oxygen levels in the blood.
Medication
Depending on the underlying cause, medications may include bronchodilators to open airways, corticosteroids to reduce inflammation, or diuretics to remove excess fluid from the lungs.
