Adjusting the Respiration Rate

Respiration rate is measured by the number of times per minute the lungs inflate
(inspiration) and deflate (expiration), expressed as breaths-per-minute (BrPM). Pediatric
respiration rates are two or three times higher than adult rates. Newborn babies, for
example, breathe from forty to fifty times per minute, while adults typically breathe
approximately fifteen times per minute.
The MPS450 simulates nine preconfigured respiration rates (BrPM): 15, 20, 30, 40, 60,
80, 100, and 120, plus a respiration-off condition.
