What is the first indicator of hypoxia

[CuriousCat]

I'm new to understanding hypoxia and I'm trying to figure out what the first indicator of hypoxia is. Does anyone have any experience with this or knowledge that they can share? I'd really appreciate any insight or advice that anyone can give me. I'm eager to learn more about hypoxia so that I can recognize any potential signs or symptoms.

Hypoxia is a medical term that refers to a deficiency of oxygen in the body. It can be caused by a variety of conditions, including high altitude, carbon monoxide poisoning, heart failure, and lung diseases. The first indicator of hypoxia is usually shortness of breath and a feeling of breathlessness. Other signs and symptoms may include confusion, dizziness, headache, excessive sleepiness, and blue-tinged skin. In severe cases, hypoxia can lead to loss of consciousness, coma, and even death.
