Re: Help me in Chest Physiotherapy
A low SpO2 is not a contraindication of chest physiotherapy, I believe its even more important at that time. I recently walked in to see a patient and found their SpO2 was in the low 50s! Of course I immediately sent someone to get the Registrar and started chest physio on the patient. We managed to get her up to 90% within 15mins
