This document discusses the diagnosis and management of post-operative hypoxia. It outlines examination findings that may indicate hypoxia such as altered mental state, cyanosis, and dyspnea. Investigations like pulse oximetry and arterial blood gases are used to diagnose hypoxia. Management focuses on improving oxygen delivery through ensuring a clear airway, adequate breathing with oxygen supplementation, and addressing any circulation issues like anemia. Further treatments may include positioning, physiotherapy, nebulizers, and procedures like thoracentesis to drain fluid in severe cases.
