Systems and/or methods for guiding transitions between therapy modes in connection with treatment and/or diagnosis of sleep-disordered breathing

A method of guiding transitions between therapy modes in connection with the treatment and/or diagnosis of a patient for a respiratory disorder, the method comprising:

• providing respiratory disorder treatment to a mask using a flow generator according to a first therapy mode;
• receiving input in the flow generator from a response by an operator indicating a second therapy mode to be transitioned to following provision of the first therapy mode, said response being entered into a terminal and communicated to the flow generator, said input being received in the flow generator after the first therapy mode is initially provided, said second therapy mode being different from said first therapy mode;
• assigning or calculating at least one default treatment parameter using an application tangibly stored on a computer-readable storage medium accessible by the terminal, the at least one default treatment parameter suitable for the second therapy mode;
• presenting each said default treatment parameter of the second therapy mode to the operator using a display on the terminal, said presenting occurring after the first therapy mode is initially provided to the mask by the flow generator, each said default treatment parameter being adjustable by the operator during said presenting;
• and
• transitioning the flow generator from the first therapy mode to the second therapy mode by providing respiratory disorder treatment to the mask using the flow generator in accordance with the second therapy mode and each said default treatment parameter and any adjustments made thereto prior to said transitioning.
