A Review of the Causes of Postoperative Hypoxia

G. R. SELLERY M.D., DIP.ANAES., F.R.C.P.(c)1

1 Department of Anaesthesia, University of Toronto

Postoperative hypoxia occurs to a significant degree in healthy patients breathing air following surgery. The preoperative values are lower than was previously thought. The possible aetiological factors and their prevention have been discussed, and suggestions have been made to minimize the decrease in postoperative arterial oxygen tension.

Presented in the Residents' Programme at the Annual Meeting of the Canadian Anaesthetists' Society, June 1967.
