A bluish color to the skin or mucous membrane is usually due to a lack of oxygen in the blood. The medical term is cyanosis.
The prime sites of the bluish discoloration in central cyanosis are lips, tongue, hands, feet, and mucous membranes of the oral cavity. The depth of the color usually correlates with the amount of desaturated hemoglobin, and hence, the severity of cyanosis.
Cyanosis is a pathologic condition that is characterized by a bluish discoloration of the skin or mucous membrane1 [1]. The word cyanosis is a derivative of the word cyan, a blue-green color.
It is a common finding and may persist for 24 to 48 hours. Central cyanosis — Central cyanosis is caused by reduced arterial oxygen saturation. Newborn infants normally have central cyanosis until up to 5 to 10 minutes after birth, as the oxygen saturation rises to 85 to 95 percent by 10 minutes of age [5].
