Two reasons I went was ....my oxygen was 85 and my pulse was 165 and I really couldn't breathe it was scary My question is what is lowest number on oximeter and pulse meter to trigger me to go to ER. This was first time I had to go to hospital and still wasn't sure if I should go. Can someone give me some advise as to what numbers should make me go to ER? Thanks so much for any information.
