What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Respiratory rate detection - end tidal CO2
Time Frame: From enrollment through the end of the data collection visit, expected to take up to 3 hours.
End-Tidal CO2 will be measured as a fractional concentration (volume percent of CO₂ in exhaled gas).
From enrollment through the end of the data collection visit, expected to take up to 3 hours.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Respiratory rate detection - spirometry
Time Frame: From enrollment through the data collection visit, up to 3 hours.
Spirometry will be measured as Forced Vital Capacity (FVC).
From enrollment through the data collection visit, up to 3 hours.
