  • Publication number: 20230191053
    Abstract: A method of predicting an unintentional leak in a respiratory system during a sleep session includes causing, during the sleep session, pressurized air to be delivered from a respiratory device to a user via a conduit coupled to a user interface. The method also includes receiving historical first data associated with pressurized air delivered from the respiratory device during one or more prior sleep sessions; receiving current first data associated with the pressurized air being delivered from the respiratory device during the sleep session; receiving historical second data associated with the user during one or more prior sleep sessions; and receiving, via one or more second sensors, current second data associated with the user during the current sleep session. The method determines, a likelihood that an unintentional leak in the respiratory system will occur within a predetermined amount of time.

  • Publication number: 20230025591
    Abstract: A system includes a respiratory device, a mask, a microphone, a speaker, and a control system. The respiratory device is configured to supply pressurized air. The mask is coupled to the respiratory device and configured to engage a user during a sleep session to aid in directing the supplied pressurized air to the user. The microphone is configured to generate audio data. The speaker is configured to emit sound. The control system is configured to analyze the audio data to determine if noise associated with air leaking from the mask is occurring. Responsive to (i) the analysis resulting in a determination that noise associated with air leaking from the mask is occurring, (ii) the respiratory device determining that air is leaking from the mask, or (iii) both, the speaker is caused to emit the sound to aid in masking the noise associated with the air leaking from the mask.
