Calculate the respiratory rate of a patient easily and accurately
The initial idea was from Wai Keong on the NHS HackDay mailing list. Details of which are also on his blog http://wai2k.wordpress.com/2013/06/16/a-simple-app-for-counting-respiratory-rate/
7Breaths is an application to make measuring the respiratory rate clinically (i.e. by a person watching) easy.
The name "7Breaths" was suggested by Barry Rowlingson
The initial mailing list discussion can be found on the Google groups pages https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en&fromgroups#!topic/nhshackday/ioOECJ3ZVEI

The application has been built using the Appcelerator Framework and the Alloy compoment. Installation instructions and how to build appcelerator source is all on their website.
A Stackmob account is also required and is free to sign up to. Create a new app on Stackmob and then create a new Schema called rr. Edit the app/assets/stackmob.cfg file with the API key and then rename it to a .js extension.
The rr schema needs to have the following fields:
| name | type |
|---|---|
| data | array[integer] |
| device | string |
| fixed_or_timed | string |
| fixed_or_timed_value | float |
