What to do if the newborn's blood oxygen saturation is low

When using some medicines, it will be written that children and pregnant women should use them with caution. There are different groups in life, and when choosing treatment methods and medicines, there will also be special ways. What method should be used for newborns with low blood oxygen saturation? Let us explain what to do if the blood oxygen saturation of newborns is low.

Blood oxygen saturation refers to the maximum solubility of oxygen in the blood. The oxygen in the blood is mainly combined with hemoglobin and generally does not change. It is an important physiological parameter of respiratory cycle. 1. Normal blood oxygen saturation is generally above 95%. 2. Generally, a blood oxygen saturation below 90% is considered a relatively dangerous situation. 3. However, some people, especially those with lung diseases, sleep apnea syndrome and other diseases, may experience low blood oxygen saturation, which is a tolerance phenomenon caused by long-term hypoxia.

Generally, low blood oxygen saturation is increased by oxygen inhalation. The reason for this is usually pneumonia, which causes the body's inhaled volume, expiratory volume, and tidal volume to decrease. It is also caused by inflammatory reactions such as viruses or bacteria in the lungs. It is usually a bacterial infection, and it will improve after a period of anti-inflammatory treatment, but it mainly depends on the anti-inflammatory effect. You can try cephalosporin. If there is not much change after using cephalosporin, you may wish to consider whether there is a viral infection at the same time. You can add some antiviral drugs such as ribavirin.

The above is the solution to low blood oxygen saturation in newborns. It is mainly through thinking of ways to increase blood oxygen saturation. The most direct cause of low saturation is pneumonia. Children are a high-risk group for pneumonia. In order to treat this disease, special methods are needed in a relatively stable environment.
