The system is configured to detect respiratory events and control the pressure support to generate a pulse of breathable gas for delivery to the airway of the subject. The respiratory events may include airway obstruction (e.g., obstructive sleep apnea), and/or other respiratory events. The pulse may comprise a temporary bolus of breathable gas. The pulse may be delivered by the system as needed to open the airway of the subject. The pulse of breathable gas is configured to open the airway of subject 12 before a subsequent inhalation. In some embodiments, the system comprises one or more of a pressure generator, a subject interface, one or more sensors, a processor, a user interface, electronic storage, and/or other components. - 24 -WO 2014/072915 PCT/1B2013/059947 1/4 0c EE czC~ 1iU LrLL
