About oxygen saturation level
Hello, My dad has been suffering from fever and cough from two days. Have been monitoring his oxygen saturation level it's between 92-95. Have given his swab for test too. But sometimes it drops below 90 and comes back. Fever is also intermittent. Between 100-102. How should I monitor further. Please guide
