Back to EpisodesThe Importance of Respiratory Rate Tracking During The COVID-19 Pandemic
Description
At WHOOP, we have been gathering information on coronavirus and we have already uncovered fascinating insights into this terrible disease. WHOOP is investigating a potential connection between changes in respiratory rate and COVID-19 symptoms and is partnering with the Cleveland Clinic and Central Queensland University to study this possible link. Emily Capodilupo joins Will Ahmed to discuss why WHOOP is tracking coronavirus (1:16), the details of our research efforts (2:32), what we have learned so far (4:32), the importance of detecting who is sick (8:12), how data can help (12:21), what we know about respiratory rate and how consistent it is (13:17), why accurate information is tricky to obtain during this time (16:25), understanding exercise intolerance (21:02), and how you can track your respiratory rate using WHOOP (23:33). Plus, Will answers your questions in this week's mailbag (26:00).
