Last updated: December 2024

Understanding your respiration rate as measured by CardioMood.

What is Respiration Rate?

Respiration rate (breathing rate) is the number of breaths you take per minute. It's measured in BrPM (breaths per minute).

Normal Ranges

  • At rest: 12-20 BrPM
  • During sleep: 10-15 BrPM
  • During exercise: varies widely

How It's Measured

CardioMood estimates respiration rate by analyzing: - Heart rate variability patterns - Subtle changes in blood flow - Movement patterns

Why It Matters

  • Indicator of cardiovascular health
  • Can reflect stress levels
  • Useful for sleep analysis
  • Changes may indicate illness
