Hypoxia is a condition in which the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply.
History[]
Dr. Rodney McKay preferred hypoxia to explosive decompression, when he was trapped in an sinking gateship and had to divert power to the life support. (SGA: "Thirty-Eight Minutes", "Grace Under Pressure")
The crew of the Destiny began showing signs of hypoxia before they fixed the ship's CO2 scrubbers. (SGU: "Air, Part 3").
After Young vented the atmosphere in a room, Telford felt a strong hypoxia and began to asphyxiate. (SGU: "Subversion", "Incursion, Part 1")
