摘要：
Provided are systems and methods for combined respiratory therapy and respiratory monitoring. A respiratory therapy and respiratory monitoring apparatus as described herein may include a spacer portion having first and second ends, wherein the first end includes a patient interface and the second end includes a respiratory therapy device. A monitoring device such as, for example, a microphone is incorporated into the spacer portion so as to record sounds from within the apparatus. The sounds may be processed and otherwise analyzed to derive one or more characteristics therefrom. These characteristics may be used to make one or more determinations relevant to the monitored and treated patient.
