To count respirations without a patient knowing, observe their chest movements discreetly while appearing to engage in another activity, such as checking their pulse or adjusting their clothing. You can count each rise and fall of the chest as one breath, ensuring your counting is subtle and unobtrusive. Another method is to place your hand gently on the patient's back to feel the breaths without drawing attention to your actions. This approach helps maintain a natural environment for the patient, yielding more accurate results.
