Respiratory Red Flags

The Respiratory Red Flags was developed for people who need a focused way to provides a rapid safety reference for worsening breathing-related symptoms. Instead of asking users to remember scattered details, it organizes severe breathlessness, chest pain, confusion, bluish color, dehydration, persistent fever, low oxygen when prescribed, and rapid decline.

Its prompts are designed for use between appointments, during care transitions, or when preparing a concise update for a healthcare professional. The format keeps attention on observable information and provider-directed next steps rather than diagnosis or self-prescribing.

This respiratory health resource should be used with individualized clinical instructions. Urgent or rapidly worsening symptoms require appropriate medical evaluation. It is designed to complement—not replace—clinical care.
