Summary

Healthcare facilities worldwide still measure respiration manually by counting and timing chest movements. In clinical departments that are fast-paced in nature and that have either high patient volumes or require more accurate measurements (e.g. emergency and respiratory wards), manual methods of counting respiration can be slow, laborious and highly subjective. While potential solutions such as electrocardiography (ECG) and capnography (CPG) have been explored for more objective monitoring of respiration, they are not fast enough due to long setup times to get patient and system ready and prolonged periods of connection to patients. Furthermore, such ECG/CPG based solutions can be costly, are generally sufficient for patients in high dependency units, and may be impractical to deploy in a remote setting.
