Breathing frequency; rate at which breathing occurs, usually measured in breaths per minute
This article is about the measurement of breathing. For the parameter used in ecological and agronomical modeling, see respiration rate.
The respiratory rate is the rate at which breathing occurs; it is set and controlled by the respiratory center of the brain. A person's respiratory rate is usually measured in breaths per minute.
