begin quote:
Hypoxia occurs when oxygen is insufficient at the tissue level to maintain adequate homeostasis,
stemming from various causes such as hypoventilation,
ventilation-perfusion mismatch, or right-to-left shunting. Hypoxia can
manifest acutely or chronically, with varying presentations from dyspnea
to tachypnea.Mar 4, 2024
