Popis: Existing respiratory rate (RR) monitors suffer from inaccuracy. The study assesses the accuracy of a novel modality that monitors lung ventilation with miniature motion sensors. RR was measured by three methods: impedance technology, motion sensors and visual count, in babies (n=9) that breathed spontaneously or with respiratory support and babies (n=12) that received high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV). A line close to equality (slope=0.96, r2=0.83) was obtained between the motion sensor and the visual count of the RR with narrow 95% limits of agreements (
