While discharging from the hospital, it will also be seen that the patient does not have fever without taking fever medicine, has no breathing problem and does not need oxygen. On the other hand, if the patient is on oxygen support and after three days his symptoms do not end and he needs oxygen support, then they will also be seen before discharging that they have symptoms of corona and for three days it will be without oxygen support. If you are maintaining oxygen saturation, then there will be no need to check them while discharging from the hospital.
