KPAP is designed to sync with your natural breathing cycle
Kairos Positive Airway Pressure (KPAP) delivers the right pressure at the right time instead of providing constant pressure throughout the entire breath cycle.

A new day in PAP therapy has arrived.
Meet Kricket
Kairos Positive Airway Pressure.
KPAP is a fundamentally new pressure-delivery algorithm developed by sleep physicians. Instead of forcing constant pressure all night, KPAP delivers the right pressure at the Kairos, or the right time: the moment your airway needs it.
Designed with patient comfort in mind

CPAP
CPAP delivers continuous pressure
CPAP therapy delivers constant pressure throughout the breathing cycle, which can create an uncomfortable experience that must be tolerated just to receive sleep apnea treatment.
KPAP
KPAP is designed to support natural breath.
KPAP syncs with your natural breath, delivering therapeutic pressure only at the moment you need it: at late exhalation into the start of inhalation. This makes breathing feel much more natural.
Founder’s Note
For 35 years, I treated patients with obstructive sleep apnea using CPAP. My focus was always adherence: monitoring and coaching patients, and troubleshooting problems. I always trusted that the manufacturers had utilized the best science, but over time, I began to question whether something important had been missed.
Five years ago, I stopped seeing patients and devoted all my time to the engineering and physiology of CPAP. That work led to the discovery of the Kairos of the airway: the critical moment in each breath when pressure is needed. Hippocrates, around 400 BCE, used the term kairos to describe the precise timing of therapy. KairosPAP, or KPAP, was built from that insight.
Just think: if you breathe about 15 times per minute, each breath lasts only a few seconds. Traditional CPAP delivers the prescribed pressure throughout the entire breath. Our research into the Kairos of the airway showed that, for many patients, full pressure may only be needed during a brief moment near the end of each breath. Understanding when pressure is needed opened the door to a different approach to pressure delivery.
SleepRes was founded to bring clinical experience, engineering, and peer-reviewed physiology back together after many years of separation—so patients are not simply asked to tolerate therapy, but are given therapy designed around how they actually breathe.
