Abstract:Background
Patients undergoing bronchoscopy, particularly those with pre-existing hypoxemia, face a significant risk of further deterioration in their oxygen saturation levels. This heightened risk necessitates the provision of supplemental oxygen therapy throughout the procedure, rendering it mandatory.
