Difference between pulse rate and breathing rate
prathamesh1855:
Vital signs is one of the most important factors doctors, nurses, and health care professional assess during admission to the hospital. These vital signs include respiratory rate, pulse rate, temperature, blood pressure, and lastly pain if there is any. Vital signs tell whether a patient is in danger already, is at risk of danger, or stable
Two of the most common vital signs routinely being taken are the heart rate and pulse rate. What can be the difference?
The difference lies in the manner of taking it. The heart rate is assessed via the use of a stethoscope to count the beats directly on the chest particularly at the apical pulse. By the auscultating technique, a medical professional can count the heartbeats per minute. He or she can assess whether there are abnormal heart sounds such as S3 and S4, whether the client has congestive heart failure, hypertension, and such. The apical pulse is found between the fourth
fourth and fifth intercostal space mid-clavicular line.

pulse rate is the number of times the heart pumps the blood into the thick walled artery in a minute
breathing rate is the number of times we inhale and exhale air including the respiratory pause in a minute
pulse rate is related with heart while breathing rate is related to nose
breathing rate is normally 15-45 times under normal circumstances
Lisle rate is normally 72 times

• Pulse rate is the number of times your heart beats per minute.
• Breathing rate is the rate at which breathing occurs. This is usually measured in breaths per minute.
