Respiratory Clinical Trial
Official title:
Evaluation and Validation of the "Breatheasy" Respiratory Rate Monitor in Pre-hospital Care
In the emergency department, a sick child is usually seen first by the nursing staff. Their job is to quickly assess how sick the child is and what immediate care is needed. The nurse will usually use suitable devices to check vital signs, such as body temperature, pulse rate and blood oxygen levels. However, normally the respiratory rate has to be manually counted (this is the average number of breaths taken each minute) because there is no suitable device which can automatically do this assessment. To overcome this problem we have produced a noncontact device that can automatically measure respiratory rate in children. The device has been designed using the latest technology and works by directly sensing the air coming from the nose or the mouth when held at about 20 cm from the face. It has been tested on adults and children and compared to the usual methods of measuring respiratory rate. We have used comments and Suggestions from members of the public and healthcare professionals from hospital, general practice and the ambulance service to help us develop the device. With this study, we explore the applicability and usefulness of the device in a range of difference clinical and nonclinical settings. Its performance will be carefully evaluated on children and adults in children's nurseries, schools, university, hospital emergency departments, general practice surgeries and ambulances. In the future, when using the device nursing staff will easily be able to measure each child's respiratory rate so that the most seriously ill children will be identified earlier and get correct treatment more quickly. This will ensure that the right children get admitted to intensive care units sooner and, in some cases, deaths will be prevented.
