The Boston University scientists found three underlying factors that might cause silent hypoxia ­a condition where oxygen levels in the body drop to abnormally low level as COVID-19 begins to exit from the affected individual. The research team and biomedical engineers integrated computer modelling in order to test out three different scenarios that might help explain how the lungs stop providing the sufficient level of oxygen in the bloodstream during the course of the disease. The scientific community has been solving the puzzle of how the novel coronavirus attacks the lungs and other parts of the body during the course of the pandemic. The team also notes that despite having dangerously low levels of oxygen in many users in severe cases of COVID-19, certain users have shown no symptoms of shortness of breaths or even display any signs of difficulty in breathing.

The tissue cells pertaining to the lungs start losing oxygen and are no longer capable of working and infusing the blood stream with oxygen which can render many organs of losing temporary functionality. In order to get to the bottom of this current dilemma, the team incorporated a combination of biological mechanisms that studied the simultaneous reactions that occur in the anatomy of a user who has contracted COVID-19. The team notes that in a normal and healthy human body, the lungs perform their functions of life sustainability every time we breathe in and breathe out. Healthier set of lungs keep the blood oxygenation level between a steady 95 to 100 percent. If that level drops down below 92%, this might show a cause of concern for many reasons. The researchers analyzed some preclinical data that suggested that some lungs which contacted COVID-19 lost the ability to restrict blood flow to already damaged tissue and open up blood vessels.
