ResumoRespiratory rate (RR) is a crucial vital sign in patient monitoring and is often the best marker of the deterioration of a sick patient. It can be used to help diagnose numerous medical conditions and has been demonstrated to be an independent predictor of patient outcomes in various critical care settings and is incorporated in many clinical early warning scores. Here, we report on the performance of depth-camera-based system for the noncontact monitoring of RR during a ramped RR protocol. The ramped breathing protocol was developed specifically to test the relatively rapid changes in rates, which include clinically important low and high ranges of RRs.
