Described is a respiratory therapy system that comprises a respiratory therapy apparatus that is configured to provide a flow of breathable gas at, at least a first pressure and a second pressure to a patient. The respiratory therapy apparatus comprises a flow generator configured to provide the flow of breathable gas, a controller, coupled to a trigger sensor, to control respiratory therapy apparatus operations, a breathing conduit assembly that conveys the breathable gas to a patient via a patient interface, a trigger that produces a signal detectable by the trigger sensor. The controller is configured to control the flow generator to provide the flow of breathable gas at, at least the first pressure or the second pressure based on detection of the signal from the trigger. |
