Effects of high altitude on respiratory rate and oxygen saturation reference values in healthy infants and children younger than 2 years in four countries: a cross-sectional study

BACKGROUND: In resource-limited settings, pneumonia diagnosis and management are based on thresholds for respiratory rate (RR) and oxyhaemoglobin saturation (SpO(2)) recommended by WHO. However, as RR increases and SpO(2) decreases with elevation, these thresholds might not be applicable at all alti...
