A lethargic mental status and an oxygen saturation of 94% on room air are critical signs of inadequate oxygenation and potential airway compromise. Provide high-concentration supplemental oxygen immediately and prepare for endotracheal intubation if the child cannot maintain a patent airway or adequate ventilation.
Do not delay respiratory support for rewarming or diagnostic tests like ABG analysis. While hypothermia is common, correcting hypoxemia is the life-saving intervention that prevents progression to cardiac arrest and minimizes neurological damage.
