Question
Is a blood oxygen saturation of 79% considered within the normal range? How should children who have been in this state for a long time handle it?
Answer
A blood oxygen saturation of 79% is not within the normal range, indicating a condition of hypoxia. It is recommended to increase nutritional intake, avoid eating cold, spicy, and irritating foods, and pay attention to rest, avoiding overexertion and stress.
