=== Central cyanosis ===
Central cyanosis is often due to a circulatory or ventilatory problem that leads to poorer blood [[oxygenation]] in the lungs or greater oxygen extraction due to slowing down of blood circulation in the skin's blood vessels.
=== Peripheral cyanosis ===
Peripheral cyanosis is the blue tint in fingers or extremities, due to inadequate circulation. The blood reaching the extremities is not oxygen rich and when viewed through the skin a combination of factors can lead to the appearance of a [[Blood#Color|blue color]]. All factors contributing to central cyanosis can also cause peripheral symptoms to appear, however peripheral cyanosis can be observed without there being heart or lung failures. Small blood vessels may be restricted and can be treated by increasing the normal oxygenation level of the blood.
===Differential Cyanosis===


In adults with a large [[PDA]], [[Eisenmenger's syndrome]] may develop with presents as cyanosis due to a [[right-to-left shunt]]. The inversion of the shunt is produced because of the progressive increase in [[pulmonary vascular resistance]]. Severe [[pulmonary vascular resistance]] results in reversal of flow through the [[ductus]], and unoxygenated blood is shunted to the descending [[aorta]], and the toes, but not the fingers, become cyanotic and clubbed, a finding termed differential cyanosis.

Overview

There is no established system for the classification of [disease name].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified according to [classification method] into [number] subtypes/groups: [group1], [group2], [group3], and [group4].

OR

[Disease name] may be classified into [large number > 6] subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3]. [Disease name] may be classified into several subtypes based on [classification method 1], [classification method 2], and [classification method 3].

OR

Based on the duration of symptoms, [disease name] may be classified as either acute or chronic.

OR

If the staging system involves specific and characteristic findings and features: According to the [staging system + reference], there are [number] stages of [malignancy name] based on the [finding1], [finding2], and [finding3]. Each stage is assigned a [letter/number1] and a [letter/number2] that designate the [feature1] and [feature2].

OR

The staging of [malignancy name] is based on the [staging system].

OR

There is no established system for the staging of [malignancy name].

Classification
