I'm hoping for some help understanding the types of hypoxia in CTG. I'm a medical student and I'm having trouble understanding the different types and how they're diagnosed.
What are the types of hypoxia in CTG

Subtitle Forum: Types of Hypoxia in CTG
Hypoxia is a condition in which the body or a part of it is deprived of adequate oxygen supply. Hypoxia can cause a variety of medical problems, including organ damage, tissue death, and even death. It is important to understand the different types of hypoxia that can occur in the context of fetal monitoring (CTG) so that appropriate medical attention can be provided promptly.
Mild Hypoxia is the most common type of hypoxia and occurs when oxygen levels in the body are slightly lower than normal. This type of hypoxia is usually not dangerous and can be resolved with simple treatments.
Moderate Hypoxia occurs when oxygen levels drop to a level that is significantly lower than normal. This type of hypoxia can be dangerous and can lead to serious injury or death.
Severe Hypoxia is the most dangerous type of hypoxia and occurs when oxygen levels drop to a critical level. Severe hypoxia can lead to organ failure, tissue death, and death.
Hypoxia can be detected on a CTG, so it is important to be aware of the signs and symptoms that may indicate hypoxia. If any of these signs or symptoms are present, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
