Concerned About Respiratory Rate
July 23, 2014, 8:10 PM- Q: Fanta tolerated her steam room well, but she just laid there and rested for 20 mins I noticed her respirations the first time was 80 and after 5 more minutes it was 60 is this ok darla
- A: As long as her attitude is good don't concern yourself with counting rate as it is highly variable. It is affected by exercise, temperature, humidity and social interaction. Being new to your whole environment rollls all these together.
