The optimal duration of continuous respiratory rate monitoring to predict in-hospital mortality within seven days of admission – A pilot study in a low resource setting
Four hours of continuously measured respiratory rates was the observation period that best predicted 7-day in-hospital mortality. After four hours the discrimination of a weighted respiratory rate score deteriorated rapidly.
