Hypoxemia is a common complication of childhood respiratory tract infections and non-respiratory infections. Hypoxemic children have a five-fold increased risk of death compared to children without hypoxemia. In addition, there is limited evidence about hypoxemia and clinical predictors in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study was conducted to assess the prevalence and clinical predictors of hypoxemia among children with respiratory distress admitted to the University of Gondar Comprehensive Specialized Hospital.
