A member asked:
My 8 month old baby has bronchitis, during sleep her oxygen level goes down to the low 80s. she was released after 24 hours from hospital , need help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Low 80s: This is too low, even for a sleeping baby. Elevate her head, make sure her nasal passages are clear and take her back to the ER for further assessment and management. All the best and I'm sorry she is so sick.
