In Colorado Daface's O2 is fine. Yes, its the altitude. Your body adapts.
95 or greater is normal for non-high altitude areas of the globe. 92 That is consistent for any length of time, you should be concerned especially if your chest feels "heavy" or you labor breathing 88 you qualify for free medicare O2 because you will die without supplemental O2. |

I'm hesitant to make an all encompassing statement,as the patient's clinical appearance and history makes a big difference. And again, these are patients who are having continuous pulse oximetry being monitored by clinical staff. This is not someone sitting at home *************** https://www.journalofhospitalmedicin...xygen-patients RECOMMENDATIONSFor most acutely ill patients, do not administer supplemental oxygen when SpO2*>92%. If supplemental oxygen is used, the SpO2*should not exceed 94%-96%. For patients with suspected MI, only start supplemental oxygen for SpO2*<90%. For patients at risk for hypercapnic respiratory failure (eg, COPD patients), target SpO2*of 88%-92%. Provide supplemental oxygen to normoxemic patients with carbon monoxide poisoning, decompression injury, gas embolism, cluster headache, sickle cell crisis, and pneumothorax. Review and revise institutional practices and policies that contribute to unnecessary use of supplemental oxygen. Last edited by SupDock; 01-05-2021 at 11:37 AM.. |

Hey, look on the bright side. At least KS isn't DEAD last in doses given. Hawaii has given less.
