movement.

Exercise- increases RR during exertion, decreases it at rest.

Pathological conditions- will effect the rate, depth and movements of respiration.

Alterations in fluid, electrolyte and acid balances such as acidosis and hyperventilation affect the PH
balance that how the body's regulatory systems attempts to compensate through the respiratory
center.

Medications (narcotics) and trauma such as head injury can slow the RR down.

Infection will speed up body metabolism causing fever and increase the RR.

Pain and anxiety activate the sympathetic nervous system that increases the RR.
