      Hypoxia is a condition characterised by an inadequate or decreased supply of oxygen to the lungs. It is caused by several extrinsic factors such as reduction in pO2, 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.
      Anaemic 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 temperature 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.
