English term or phrase: hypoxemia
Definition from Mayo Clinic:
Hypoxemia is a below-normal level of oxygen in your blood, specifically in the arteries. Hypoxemia is a sign of a problem related to breathing or circulation, and may result in various symptoms, such as shortness of breath.

Example sentence(s):
  • Corona-Hypoxemia Can Give Rise To Type-2 Myocardial Infection Medical Dialogues
  • The panel also found that CT is appropriate in patients with functional impairment and/or hypoxemia (low level of oxygen in the blood) after recovery from COVID-19. When there is known community transmission, evidence of COVID-19 has been incidentally found on CT scans. In these cases, patients should have COVID-19 testing using a reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) viral assay. Science Daily
  • For one, some critically severe patients will still have severe hypoxemia on ventilation and will require ECMO, according to Ning Zhou, MD, PhD, who is currently working in the ICU ward of Tongji Hospital in Wuhan. MedPage Today

저산소혈증


Definition from 서울아산병원 알기쉬운의학용:
저산소증은 호흡기능의 장애로 숨쉬기가 곤란하여 체내 산소 분압이 떨어진 상태로 동맥혈 가스검사를 시행했을 때 산소 분압이 60mmHg 미만이거나 산소 포화도가 90% 미만일 경우를 의미합니다.

Example sentence(s):
  • 저산소혈증으로 인한 적혈구증가증 환자의 경우는 조금만 움직여도 숨이 차고 정신이 혼미해지거나 청색증을 관찰할 수 있다. - 대한의학회지  
  • 동맥혈 가스분석 검사에서 질환 초기에는 이산화탄소분압의 감소와 더불어 산소분압의 감소가 있으며, 이런 소견은 산소 투여로 좋은 반응을 보이지만, 질환이 점차 진행함에 따라서 심한 동맥혈 저산소혈증과 함께 산소 투여에도 개선되지 않습니다. - 질병관리본부  
  • "따라서 이들 환자에서 치료적 중재의 핵심은 적절한 기관 지지(organ support) 요법으로 저산소혈증을 역전시킴과 동시에 바이러스 부하를 감소시켜 질병의 중증도를 제한하는데 있다"고 강조했다. - 청년의사
