Methods: 150 patients with septic shock treated in our hospital from January 2020 to July 2021 were divided into 3 groups according to the severity of hypoxemia. All patients received comprehensive treatment, and the blood gas indexes of patients before and after treatment were compared;Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) before resuscitation, 1d and 7d after resuscitation. Results: compared with that before treatment, the above index levels of patients after treatment were significantly improved, P < 0.05. Conclusion: in the clinical treatment of patients with hypoxemia caused by concentration shock, comprehensive treatment methods, especially oxygen therapy, non-invasive intermittent positive pressure breathing therapy, fluid resuscitation therapy and hyperbaric oxygen chamber treatment, can quickly correct the hypoxemia of patients and reduce the body damage, which is worth learning from.展开更多
