System and methods for triggering sounds to mask noise from respiratory systems and their components

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 (i) and (ii), cause the speaker to emit the sound to aid in masking the noise associated with the air leaking from the mask.
