súrefnisaðgengi
Súrefnisaðgengi refers to the availability and accessibility of oxygen, particularly in medical and physiological contexts. It is a crucial factor for the survival and proper functioning of aerobic organisms, which rely on oxygen for cellular respiration. In healthcare, súrefnisaðgengi is a vital indicator of a patient's condition, often monitored through pulse oximetry or arterial blood gas analysis.
Low súrefnisaðgengi, also known as hypoxemia, can result from various respiratory or circulatory problems, such as
Medical interventions to improve súrefnisaðgengi include supplemental oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and treatments for underlying conditions.
