Derivation of the respiratory rate signal from a single lead ECG
… that respiration has an influence on heart rate, and this effect is called respiratory sinus arrhythmia. As a result, two inferences can be postulated: first respiration information can be derived from cardiac activity, and second this effect offers the potential of removing the respiration …

An investigation into what influences nurses' practice to not take and record respiratory rate
… Nurses (RNs) to not take and record patients’ respiratory rate. It was an exploratory descriptive qualitative study based on semi-structured telephone interviews with ten RNs working in three hospitals within New Zealand. The interviews aimed to investigate their experiences around the practice …

The effect of rapid rib raising technique on heart rate, respiratory rate, pain pressure threshold and systolic and diastolic blood pressure in asymptomatic participants
… output included blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and pain pressure threshold and were recorded at the end of each rest and intervention period. There was a significant increase in respiration rate after rapid articulation when compared to placebo and control groups. No other …

Smart E-Textiles Integrated into Human Health Monitoring Systems
… is at the forefront of concern. To illustrate the potential of e-textile monitoring in health care, two applications of health monitoring were chosen: monitoring respiratory rate and monitoring the dyadic interactions between a parent and their infant, specifically kangaroo care. As one of …

Towards Continuous Mobile Sensing for Remote COPD Monitoring
… that can be extracted from wearable sensors, respiratory rate and coughing. To detect respiratory rate, we propose WearBreathing -- our system for respiratory rate detection using the accelerometer and gyroscope sensors found in smartwatches. While respiratory rate from a smartwatch has been …

The relation of spontaneous startles to cardiac and respiratory activity in newborn infants
… startles using the ongoing cardiac and respiratory activity as indices of arousal. Twenty-six newborn infants were assigned to two groups. The first group was exposed to auditory stimulation which previously had been shown to decrease heart rate and respiratory rate for the first half of …

In-ear Audio For Physiological Monitoring
… we focus on three key vital signs: heart rate, respiratory rate, and stroke volume. For each of these, we develop novel sensing pipelines that leverage the unique properties of in-ear audio, including its ability to capture both heart sounds and footstep sounds. First, we study heart rate …

The Effects Of Chinese Calligraphy On Reducing Anxiety And Comorbid Depression Levels Among Breast Cancer Patients In Hong Kong
… measurements including blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate and self-reported psychological measurements including the full version of <em>State-Trait Anxiety Inventory </em>(STAI) and the short version <em>Depression Anxiety Stress Scale</em> (DASS 21) were used. Blood pressure, …

The Effects of High Environmental Temperature Induced Acid-Base Disturbance on The Utilization of Calcium by The Domestic Hen
… of an acute heat stress (35(DEGREES)C) on respiratory rate, blood pH, blood PCO(,2) and blood HCO(,3)('-) concentration was investigated in SCWL hens. Within one hour after initiation of heat challenge, respiratory rate was significantly (P < .01) elevated which led to blood alkalosis from …

The effect of massage on premature infants.
… characteristics of preterm infants' pulse rate, respiratory rate, stress related behavior and self comforting behavior in two situations: (1) the infant receiving routine nursing care in the environment of a neonatal intensive care nursery, and (2) the infant in the same environment after …

Untersuchungen zur künstlichen Beatmung bei der Maus (Mus musculus) mit dem UNO Micro-Ventilator®
… is assessed but also the effect of different respiratory rates on mice of different weight. The assessment is made with blood gas analysis, circulatory parameters and histological examinations of the lungs. The animals can be assigned to nine groups: The non-preoxygenized animals are split up …

A Preclinical Study of Radiation-Induced Lung to xicity When Irradiating In A Strong Magnetic Field
… of radiation-induced lung injury, including a respiratory rate measurement technique and techniques for measuring lung damage on cone-beam CTs. We showed that these assays were correlated to survival, the ultimate predictor of radiation-induced lung injury.</p> <p>The mice were irradiated to …

A Frequency Loss Driven Framework for Respiration Monitoring Using Depth-Sensing Cameras
Respiratory monitoring is crucial for detecting physiological distress, yet traditional contact-based methods are often intrusive and impractical for long-term use. Non-contact approaches, particularly camera-based techniques, offer a promising alternative, but conventional RGB-based systems raise …

THE RESPIRATORY RESPONSE OF TRPV1 KNOCKOUT MICE TO TRIGEMINAL IRRITANTS
… have established that exposure to upper respiratory tract irritants results in a systematic alteration in the normal mammalian exhalation pattern which results in a decrease in respiration rate. This patterned respiration rate depression has been used as an indicator of sensory …

The effect of live music therapy interventions on pediatric patients who are mechanically ventilated and sedated and their caregivers
… ventilated and sedated as a result of a respiratory tract infection. The research aims were to: 1) Determine the effect of live music therapy interventions on heart rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate in patients who are mechanically ventilated and sedated and 2) Explore and …

Development of a perceived exertion scale in dogs exercising on a land treadmill using selected physiologic parameters
… the following physiologic parameters: heart rate, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, blood lactate and glucose concentrations, and regional tissue oximetry. We hypothesized that the measured physiologic parameters would correlate with the perceived exertion of the dogs exercising on a land …

Effects of Elevated Environmental Temperature on Passive Immunity in Swine
The effect of moderate heat stress on transference in swine has been investigated. The sows subjected to 31.6(DEGREES)C (treatment "H") in an environmental chamber, during last two weeks of gestation showed increased (P < 0.01) rectal temperature, respiratory rate and levels of cortisol compared to …

Radiological predictors of PCP in HIV-positive adults in South Africa: a matched case-control study
… PCP and a matched cohort with non-PCP respiratory presentations at regional hospitals in Cape Town, South Africa (2012 – 2020). The primary objective was to identify CXR features associated with confirmed PCP diagnosis and severe PCP (defined by hypoxia, ICU referral/admission, and/or …
