Definition of Hypoxia. Hypoxia literally means low oxygen, but is defined as a deficiency in the amount of oxygen that reaches the tissues of the body. It differs from hypoxemia, which means an inadequate amount of oxygen traveling in the blood.
Hypoxia differs from hypoxemia in that hypoxia refers to a state in which oxygen supply is insufficient, whereas hypoxemia refers specifically to states that have low arterial oxygen supply. Hypoxia in which there is complete deprivation of oxygen supply is referred to as anoxia.xygen diffuses from the breathed air, mixed with water vapour, to arterial blood, where its partial pressure is around 100 mmHg (13.3 kPa). In the blood, oxygen is bound to hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells.
