Respiration Rate from the Pleth (RRp®)
Noninvasive respiration rate monitoring available alongside clinically proven Masimo SET® pulse oximetry
Home / Respiration Rate from the Pleth (RRp®)
A Versatile and Convenient Solution for Obtaining Respiration Rate
Available alongside clinically proven Masimo SET® pulse oximetry, RRp allows clinicians to seamlessly implement respiration rate monitoring without additional equipment. RRp provides visibility to an additional key vital sign in a comprehensive single-sensor solution that is well tolerated by patients.
- Increased visibility of respiration status: By automating respiration rate monitoring, RRp trend data provides increased visibility to changes in respiration compared to periodic manual counting.
- Single-sensor solution: The addition of RRp to SpO2 monitoring streamlines access to both oxygenation and respiration status without additional cables or sensors.
- Available for multiple populations: RRp provides respiration rate continuously and noninvasively for both adult and pediatric patients.
Changes in the Plethysmographic Waveform During Breathing
RRp is a measure of respiration rate based on changes in the plethysmographic waveform.
Advanced signal processing is used to analyze baseline, amplitude, and frequency changes to the plethysmographic waveform over the respiratory cycle to calculate respiration rate.
Both continuous and spot-check RRp are supported in a variety of pulse oximetry sensors and configurations, including tetherless, wearable Radius PPG™ as well as RD SET® and RD rainbow™ sensors.
RRp provides continuous, noninvasive respiration rate for both adult and pediatric patients.
A Range of Respiration Rate Monitoring Options
RRp is one of three proprietary respiration rate monitoring options available to support clinicians in a variety of clinical scenarios:
Respiration Rate from the Pleth (RRp)
Acoustic Respiration Rate (RRa®)
NomoLine® Capnography (RRc™)
