My question is 'What drives the certification limit of 18000 feet for use of cannula in FAA land?'

More specifically, is the only requirement that o2 saturation remains above say 90% or are there other physiological issues to be considered in the space between 18k and 25k

Forum answers would be good, but it would be even better for a reference to some authoritative on line text that explains this.
