A resting respiratory rate should be 12-20 breaths/min. A rate of 28/min indicates tachypnea, a sign of decompensation.
Do not mistake common COPD findings like diminished breath sounds or a barrel chest for "normal." Accessory muscle use at rest or new adventitious sounds always signal increased work of breathing requiring immediate evaluation.
