Question 1 of 5

To accurately assess a patient's respiration rate, which of the following methods would be BEST?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The most accurate method to assess a patient's respiration rate is to count the breaths simultaneously while counting the pulse rate. This approach ensures that the patient is unaware of the specific focus on their breathing, preventing any conscious alteration in breathing patterns.
Choice A is incorrect because informing the patient may lead to altered breathing as the patient may consciously change their breathing pattern.
Choice C involves counting the pulse rate first, which is not necessary for assessing respiration rate.
Choice D is incorrect as it includes unnecessary steps such as taking the patient's temperature before counting respiration rate, which adds no value to accurately assessing the respiration rate.
