EtCO2, or exhaled carbon dioxide, is a non-invasive and commonly used measure for respiratory rate and function. It can be easily monitored using a device called a capnograph, which consists of a sensor that is placed near the patient's mouth or nose and a monitor that displays the concentration of carbon dioxide in the respiratory gases in real-time. EtCO2 capnography is generally considered a reliable and accurate method for monitoring respiration and is often used as a gold standard for comparing the performance of other methods for measuring respiration. Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to provide a thorough comparison of the performance of Sleepiz One+ and EtCO2 Capnography for measuring respiration rate, in healthy adults and patients suffering from chronic conditions (e.g. hypertension, COPD, asthma, diabetes), at rest in a clinical setting. Additionally, the performance of heart rate estimation will be evaluated against ECG.
