A member asked:
How much can a low venous oxygen saturation affect judgement?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Low oxygen levels can affect someone's judgment and arousal. But, this is variable between people. I have met plenty of people with very low oxygen levels and can act and feel fine. So, there is no general rule about that...
