A tool for use in conjunction with a pressure support system that is structured to provide therapy to a patient to treat a condition of the patient by delivering a flow of breathing gas to the patient. The tool may be implemented on a portable electronic device or a PC and is configured to, among other things, provide customized/personalized education and feedback to the patient based, at least in part, on data that is measured by the pressure support system during the provision of therapy to the patient. The tool utilizes certain patient/therapy metrics, wherein each patient/therapy metric comprises raw data that was measured by the pressure support system and that has been processed (e.g., summarized and/or otherwise manipulated) to form the patient/therapy metric.

1. A method of providing information to a patient, wherein the patient uses a pressure support system structured to provide therapy to the patient to treat a condition of the patient by delivering a flow of breathing gas to the patient, comprising: receiving in a computing device first information identifying one or more particular components of the pressure support system;receiving in the computing device second information identifying a data connection methodology by which data measured by the pressure support system during a provision of therapy by the pressure support system is to be transferred from the pressure support system to a location where the data is processed; anddisplaying third information on a display of the computing device, the third information including: (i) information relating to use of or care for the pressure support system, (ii) information relating to transferring the data from the pressure support system, and (iii) information relating to one or more solutions for problems relating to use of the pressure support system, the third information being selected based on either or both of the first information and the second information. 2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising obtaining in the computing device patient/therapy metric data, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is formed by processing the data measured by the pressure support system during the provision of therapy to the patient, and displaying the patient/therapy metric data on the display of the computing device. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is displayed in a metrics area of a first screen on the display and at least a portion of the third information is simultaneously displayed in a dynamic messaging area of the first screen. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is at least one of: (i) a first metric relating to a degree of mask leak, (ii) a second metric indicating a length of use of the pressure support device, and (iii) a third metric indicating a severity or state of the condition of the patient. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the one or more particular components of the pressure support system include a particular mask or a particular pressure generating device, wherein the first information includes information identifying the particular mask or information identifying the particular pressure generating device. 6. The method according to claim 5, wherein the third information includes one of (i) a device guide relating to operation and use of the particular pressure generating device, the device guide including at least one of text and one or more links to a video, and (ii) a mask guide relating to use of the particular mask, the mask guide including at least one of a text and one or more links to a video. 7. The method according to claim 2, wherein the third information is based on the first information and the patient/therapy metric data. 8. A computing device configured to provide information to a patient, wherein the patient uses a pressure support system structured to provide therapy to the patient to treat a condition of the patient by delivering a flow of breathing gas to the patient, the computing device comprising: a display; anda processor apparatus including a processor and a memory, the memory storing one or more routines executable by the processor, the one or more routines being adapted to:receive first information identifying one or more particular components of the pressure support system;receive second information identifying a data connection methodology by which data measured by the pressure support system during a provision of therapy by the pressure support system is to be transferred from the pressure support system to a location where the data is processed; anddisplay third information on the display, the third information including: (i) information relating to use of or care for the pressure support system, (ii) information relating to transferring the data from the pressure support system, and (iii) information relating to one or more solutions for problems relating to use of the pressure support system, the third information being selected based on either or both of the first information and the second information. 9. The computing device according to claim 8, wherein the computing device is one of a portable electronic device and a personal computer. 10. The computing device according to claim 8, wherein the one or more routines are further adapted to obtain patient/therapy metric data, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is formed by processing the data measured by the pressure support system during the provision of therapy to the patient, and display the patient/therapy metric data on the display. 11. The computing device according to claim 10, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is displayed in a metrics area of a first screen on the display and at least a portion of the third information is simultaneously displayed in a dynamic messaging area of the first screen. 12. The computing device according to claim 10, wherein the patient/therapy metric data is one of: (i) a first metric relating to a degree of mask leak, (ii) a second metric indicating a length of use of the pressure support device, and (iii) a third metric indicating a severity or state of the condition of the patient. 13. The computing device according to claim 8, wherein the one or more particular components of the pressure support system include a particular mask or a particular pressure generating device, wherein the first information includes information identifying the particular mask or information identifying particular pressure generating device. 14. The computing device according to claim 13, wherein the third information includes one of (i) a device guide relating to operation and use of the particular pressure generating device, the device guide including at least one of text and one or more links to a video, and (ii) a mask guide relating to use of the particular mask, the mask guide including at least one of text and one or more links to a video. 15. The computing device according to claim 10, wherein the third information is based on the first information and the patient/therapy metric data.
