The respiratory rate '''(RR)'''
The details of collection for ICU and medicine are different. For the timing and which value to use, see:
* for ICU: [[APACHE physiological variable collection]]
* for medicine: [[ALERT Scale timing of assessment]]
{{Data_element
| field_name = Ap_RespRate
| CCMDB_tab = Apache
| element_description = The patient's {{#show: RR| ?AP phys name}} level in {{#show: RR | ?AP phys unit}}.
| in_table = L_Log table
| data_type = number
| datafield_length = single
| program_collecting = CC
| created_raw = Raw
| data_element_sort_index = 62
}}


The unit used is breaths per minute.
{{APACHE physiological variable
|AP phys name= respiratory rate
|AP phys unit= breaths/min
|AP phys absMax=95
|AP phys warnMax=79
|AP H4= >=50
|AP H3= >=35 and <50
|AP H1= >=25 and <35
|AP 0= >=12 and <25
|AP L1= >=10 and <12
|AP L2= >=6 and <10
|AP L4= <6
|AP phys warnMin= 2
|AP phys absMin= 2
}}


Select the the value which gives you the highest score regardless of whether a patient is ventilated or not.
