(RR) and peripheral blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) in the elderly. Researchers evaluated
791 patients aged 65 and over. They found that elderly adults have a higher RR than
younger adults, with the limit for tachypnea established as 28 rpm, and that the limit of
normal for SpO2 was 91%, which was similar to that of younger adults.
