Infants have smaller lungs, and although they also have smaller bodies, the smaller lungs must work faster to exchange the amount of gasses, i.e. O2 and CO2, the same way their hearts beat faster than an adult's to pump the amount of blood they need because of it's small size.
AVR=(Tidal Volume-Dead Space)* Respiratory Rate(or Frequency)
Yes. Oxygen is a stimulant - it increases the heart rate.
The lower portion of the Brain Stem is called the Medulla Oblongata. Its job is to control Cardiac and Respiratory Centers and deals with autonomic and involuntary functions such as breathing, heart rate, and blood pressure.
Exercise, inflammation, excitement level, anatomy and medications can all affect the respiratory rate.
The average resting respiratory rate is 15-16 breaths per minute. Therefore, there would be 15-16 inhalations and 15-16 exhalations per minute.
No, it's highest.
irregular
Infants will have the fastest pulse rate.
Infants have increased respiratory rates compared to adults because their lungs are smaller and less efficient at exchanging oxygen, requiring more frequent breaths to meet their metabolic needs. Additionally, infants have underdeveloped respiratory control centers in the brain, leading to a faster respiratory rate to maintain proper oxygen levels.
The higher the respiratory rate and deeper the breaths the lower the blood CO2.
The average breathing for an adult is 12 to 20 breaths per minute. The act of breathing consists of two phases, inspiration and expiration.Early signs of respiratory distress include:- increased respiratory rate- flaring of the nostrils- use of accessory muscles of respiration
The signs of respiratory distress in infants and children are grunting, increased rate of breathing, chest retraction and difficulty in feeding.
About 20 respirations in 1 minute.
An abnormal respiratory rate is the number of times that a person breathes in one minute that is outside of the normal range of respirations in most people. The average normal rate for adults is 60 to 90, and for infants it is 100 to 140.
Fever due to any cause can increase the respiratory rate. Any disease of lungs or heart can increase the heart rate. Severe anemia is another cause.
A child's pulse rate is higher then an adult as they do more exercise but if a child is resting then it will be lower hoped this helped :)
it depends on if your obese (which you probably are).. so yea
