Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in mean respiration rate (breaths per minute) during admission day 1 to day 14. The ward nurses will measure respiration rate by counting how many times the participants chest rises in a minute. This information will then be documented in the medical notes.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change in respiratory rate variability using breaths per minute over day 1 to 14. The ward nurses will measure respiration rate by counting how many times the participants chest rises in a minute. This information will then be documented in the medical notes.
