Hypoxemia (low blood oxygen) - Mayo Clinic

https://www.mayoclinic.org › basics › definition › sym-20050930
30 Sep 2005 - It can also be estimated by measuring the oxygen saturation of your blood using a pulse oximeter — a small device that clips to your finger.
Oxygen saturation (medicine) - Wikipedia

https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Oxygen_saturation_(medicine)
Healthy individuals at sea level usually exhibit oxygen saturation values between 96% and 99%, and should be above 94%. At 1,600 meters' altitude (about one mile high) oxygen saturation should be above 92%. An SaO2 (arterial oxygen saturation) value below 90% causes hypoxia (which can also be caused by anemia).
