The medical team started Sara on intravenous antibiotics and high-flow oxygen through a mask.
Some neonatal intensive-care units (NICUs) are cutting back on the high levels of oxygen traditionally given to premature babies.

Liquid-fuelled rocket engines work by mixing the fuel (in this case kerosene) with liquid oxygen at high pressure.
Not having to use high heat to remove the oxygen was critical, Brown said.

To digress for a moment, it was biologist Felix Meerson who showed that high-altitude chambers where oxygen supply is limited, triggers an adaptive response that produces humans with profound mental capabilities and resistance against disease.
The risk here is that as Huawei and ZTE continue their assault on low-end smartphone market, the arrival of iPhone 4S will suck the oxygen out of the high-end smartphone segment, triggering order cancellations from Samsung, Nokia, LG, Sony Ericsson and HTC.
Susan Block and her father had the conversation that we all need to have when the chemotherapy stops working, when we start needing oxygen at home, when we face high-risk surgery, when the liver failure keeps progressing, when we become unable to dress ourselves.
Oxygen densities in both buildings were about 21%, high enough for workers to enter the buildings, the firm said.
That can be characterized by sort of an acute respiratory distress, such as difficulty in breathing, sweating, high temperature, and turning blue, basically, from lack of oxygen.
The longer people spend at extreme high altitude, the longer their bodies lack the needed amount of oxygen and the lower their energy stresses similar to those caused by the diseases.

He will also have a freakish ability to move oxygen through his body, but run fast using limited oxygen an attribute likely helped by being born and growing up at high altitude.
Stray-Gundersen worked for the Norwegian Olympic Committee from 1997-2002, sealing bedrooms of the country's top Nordic athletes and adjusting the oxygen and nitrogen content of the air, so they could sleep in a simulated high altitude environment (he was the scientist who developed the concept of living at high altitude to increase hemoglobin levels).
Instead of being stored in batteries, the electricity made by solar panels can be used to split water into oxygen and hydrogen molecules, the latter of which can be used as a fuel with high energy density.
He worries that if you ban the low oxygen or hypoxic tents, some may wonder why not ban those athletes who actually live at a high altitude and then train down below?
