that's case to case basis if the patient has been experiencing hypoxia for the past 5-10 mins that is very dangerous to the patient cos it may cause irreversible brain damage cos hypoxia leads to hypoxemia that's the first thing you should worry about..

and the other case is if he/she is prone or begins to hyperventilate that leads to hypoxia which in turns to hypoxemia (inadequate oxygenation of the blood) then you should first give the patient sufficient O2 to prevent or lessen the possibility of client having hypoxemia...

i think when the patient is in the hypoxemic stage it is automatically severe and dangerous and it needs critical care...
