Effect of attaching ChARM automated respiratory rate counter on actual respiratory rate in children [PDF]
Discover MedicineAccurate respiratory rate (RR) measurement is essential for diagnosing and classifying pneumonia in children. The Children’s Automated Respiration Monitor (ChARM) can measure RR, but placing the device on the chest may influence a child’s breathing. This

The importance of respiratory rate monitoring [PDF]
British Journal of Nursing, 2019 Respiratory rate measurement is regarded as a core nursing skill. Yet there are numerous recorded discrepancies in the monitoring and assessment of patients' respiratory rate. This article discusses the importance of respiration rate in terms of patient clinical outcomes, monitoring and documentation.

Fusion-Based Approach for Respiratory Rate Recognition From Facial Video Images
IEEE Access, 2020 The respiratory rate is an important vital parameter that provides information about persons' physical condition. In clinical practice it is currently only monitored using contact-based techniques, which can have negative effects on patients.

Estimating Respiratory Rate From Breath Audio Obtained Through Wearable Microphones [PDF]
Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2021 Respiratory rate (RR) is a clinical metric used to assess overall health and physical fitness. An individual’s RR can change from their baseline due to chronic illness symptoms (e.g., asthma, congestive heart failure), acute illness (e.g., breathlessness

Respiratory Rate Estimation Based on WiFi Frame Capture [PDF]
Consumer Communications and Networking Conference, 2021 This paper presents a method that estimates the respiratory rate based on the frame capturing of wireless local area networks. The method uses beamforming feedback matrices (BFMs) contained in the captured frames, which is a rotation matrix of channel ...
