  • Hypoxia is a condition characterized by an inadequate or decreased supply of oxygen to the lungs. It is caused by several extrinsic factors such as reduction in , inadequate oxygen, etc. The different types of hypoxia are discussed below.
Hypoxemic hypoxia :
  • In this condition, there is a reduction in the oxygen content of blood as a result of the low partial pressure of oxygen in the arterial blood.
Anemic hypoxia :
  • In this condition, there is a reduction in the concentration of haemoglobin.
Stagnant or ischemic hypoxia :
In this condition, there is a deficiency in the oxygen content of blood because of poor blood circulation. It occurs when a person is exposed to cold temperatures for a prolonged period of time.
  • Histotoxic hypoxia :
In this condition, tissues are unable to use oxygen. This occurs during carbon monoxide or cyanide poisoning.
