    "content": "I want to give the background of the diseases before I come to the prescription of what must happen. What happens particularly to children at the young age? When we look at the patho-physiology of the disease, you and I have the red blood cells in our bodies. These carry the red pigment called haemoglobin in the blood. It is the haemoglobin that has a carrying capacity for oxygen to all tissues of the body. When we talk of oxygen saturation percentages, we are talking about the ability and capacity of the haemoglobin to carry oxygen for oxygenation to all peripheral cells of the body. It, therefore, plays an important role in oxygenation to every tissue and area of our body throughout the circulation. When one has normal haemoglobin or protein, it is able to carry the oxygen throughout the body. When this becomes defective, then one has a problem. In other words, the cells become oval or sickle-shaped like a sickle of a knife. That being the case, its ability to carry oxygen throughout the whole system is impaired."
