3 yr old girl resp rate 23-26. every ten minutes it drops to about 14-17 for about 30 seconds. is this ok?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's fine: It's fine that she has minor decreases in RR now and then. If it only drops for 30 seconds, I'm not even quite sure how you are counting it as that because a good respiratory rate reading should be done over one minute of counting. The other thing that perplexes me is why are you counting her RR - does she have some type of underlying neurologic or respiratory condition? Otherwise, very normal!
