Depends...
Often a disorder will impact the body's methods of obtaining and/or transporting oxygen to the blood cells, and therefore, the body. Every cell in the body needs oxygen so any disorder that impedes the ability to obtain, disseminate/transport, and use oxygen will cause hypoxia, ischemia, and ultimately, death.
