What is nomal respirations per minute for adult child infant?
The rate will vary according to age. The youngest will have a faster rate. The number of breaths we take per minute is a sign of how often our brain is telling our bodies to breathe. If the oxygen level in the blood is low, or alternately if the carbon dioxide level in the blood is high, our body is instructed to breathe more often. For example, having a severe infection increases the carbon dioxide produced in the body, so even if there's a normal level of oxygen in the blood, the brain instructs the body to breathe more often to clear the carbon dioxide. Children have faster respiratory rates than adults, and the "normal" respiratory rate can vary significantly by age. The normal ranges of respiratory rates for children (at rest) of different ages include: Newborn: 30-60 breaths per minute Infant (1 to 12 months): 30-60 breaths per minute Toddler (1-2 years): 24-40 breaths per minute Preschooler (3-5 years): 22-34 breaths per minute School-age child (6-12 years): 18-30 breaths per minute Adolescent (13-17 years): 12-16 breaths per minute
What causes low minute volume alarms?
A change in respiratory rate or tidal volume.... meaning, respiratory rate decreases, maybe becomes apneic, or the tidal volume decreases...or maybe BOTH. Also, a circuit disconnect!
What is high respirations?

What is the average heart rate in dolphins?

Condition in which there is fever elevated heart and respiratory rate and low blood pressure?
sepsis
How efficient is the respiratory system of a yak?
The respiratory rate of a yak increases with heat and at low altitudes, while at higher, cooler climates, the rate decreases. This helps the animal adjust to the varying climates.
How does hypoventilation affect respiratory rate?
It is due to CO2 reduction. Low CO2 stimulates chemo-receptors in brain stem. Respiratory rate is reduced in order for CO2 to come back to normal.
How efficient is the respiratory system of the yak?
The respiratory rate of a yak increases with heat and at low altitudes, while at higher, cooler climates, the rate decreases. This helps the animal adjust to the varying climates.
What terminology for low breathing?
An abnormally slow breathing rate is called bradypnoea (UK) or bradypnea (US). The origin of the word is Greek: bradys means slow and pnoia means breath. Bradypnea is usually defined as less than twelve breaths per minute, but babies for example should breathe at least 25-30 times a minute.
