What one sees in the mobile situation are the usual red blood cells,

Blood oxygenation enhancement is a type of doping that artificially increases an individual's hemoglobin concentration above normally occurring levels. Two common methods of blood doping are blood transfusion, or the transfer of blood into a person's vein, and stimulation of endogenous erythrocyte production.

Many cancer patients have poor oxygenation of their blood. Low hemoglobin, clumped red blood cells (rouleau), infections, and toxicity can affect oxygenation, vitality, and health. The picture to the left vividly demonstrates how impossible it is for the red blood cells to circulate and transport oxygen.

Hypoxemia: Symptom — Overview covers definition, possible causes, treatment of low blood oxygen. ... Blood oxygen is measured by an arterial blood test or by an oximeter, a small device that's clipped onto your finger. Normal blood oxygen readings range from 95 to 100 percent at sea level. Values under 90 are considered low.
