A, B, C, D
Hypoxia sometimes occurs at home when a patient uses oxygen. Possible causes of hypoxia include poor tubing connections, use of long oxygen tubing, and worsening of the patient's physical problem with changes in respiratory status. Assess the patient for changes in respiratory status, such as airway plugging, respiratory tract infection, or bronchospasm.
