Design and Development of Respiratory Rate Calculators Patients with Breath Disorders

Torib Hamzah ^[2] | Abd. Kholiq

Abstract: The simplest breathing rate measurement technique is done by placing the palm of the hand on the diaphragm or chest where we perform calculations when the lungs are expiratory and inspiring using the stopwatch. Calculation of breaths per minute by using manual methods like this is less effective and still needs to enter data and input it in real time. Therefore, tools will be made using electronic methods that are easier to use, fast and precise to handle patients through breathing rates, the way this tool works is by using an oxygen mask that has been equipped with a condensor mic sensor that is able to catch the breath that will be counted in 60 seconds and displayed on the 2x16 LCD (Liquid Cristal Display) screen.
