hypoxemia
This term is a precise clinical designation used primarily in medical settings to describe a specific physiological state of the blood. It carries a neutral, diagnostic tone and is distinct from hypoxia, which refers to low oxygen at the tissue level rather than specifically in the arterial blood.
As a mass noun representing a medical condition, it is treated as uncountable. It does not have a plural form in standard medical usage; instead, clinicians refer to the severity or the presence of the condition rather than multiple instances of it.
