This prospective study evaluates the accuracy of commercial wearable devices by comparing their respiratory rate measurements against clinical standards like spirometers and ECGs in healthy adults. The goal is to determine if these devices are reliable enough for non-invasive respiratory monitoring in both everyday and medical environments.
This prospective interventional study evaluates the accuracy of respiratory rate measurement using commercially available wearable devices. Respiratory rate measured by wearable devices will be compared with reference measurements obtained from a spirometer and ECG. Healthy adult volunteers will participate in a short experimental protocol including different breathing conditions. Respiratory rate will be recorded simultaneously by wearable devices and reference monitoring systems. The aim of the study is to determine whether wearable devices can reliably measure respiratory rate and to assess their potential for non-invasive respiratory monitoring in everyday and clinical settings.

Accuracy of respiratory rate measurement using a wearable device
Agreement between respiratory rate measured by the wearable device and reference measurements obtained from spirometry and a clinical vital signs monitor in healthy volunteers.
Time frame: During the experimental measurement session (approximately 20 minutes)
