My loved one had hip replacement surgery 20 days ago and now they're sleeping all the time with oxygen levels at 31 and pulse around 100. They're not eating anything either - should we be worried about these symptoms?

Post-hip surgery drowsiness and low oxygen need urgent attention‚Äîrule out infection, embolism, or drug overdose; shift to ICU if unstable.
