What is KPAP?

Kairos Positive
Airway Pressure.

KPAP is a comfort feature on the Kricket device that reduces pressure during sleep apnea treatment to make it feel more like natural breathing.

Precision pressure delivery

Kairos Positive Airway Pressure (KPAP) delivers the right pressure at the right time instead of forcing constant pressure throughout the entire breath cycle—as CPAP does. 

Physician-developed

KPAP was developed by SleepRes sleep physicians to address common patient comfort challenges associated with PAP therapy.

Only on Kricket

KPAP can only be found on Kricket—the world’s first and only KPAP device—now cleared by the FDA.

How KPAP Can Help

You shouldn’t have to fight PAP therapy to fall asleep.

Struggling with discomfort during sleep apnea therapy? You’re not alone. Here's how Kricket, powered by KPAP can help.

  • A Common Concern

    “CPAP feels like too much pressure.”

    If your therapy feels like air is being forced down your lungs all night, you’re not imagining it. Most CPAP therapies deliver constant pressure all night, which can feel like air blowing against your natural breathing.

    The Kricket Answer

    Kricket uses a revolutionary new comfort feature called Kairos Positive Airway Pressure, or KPAP, to deliver your prescribed pressure only at the precise moment you need it.

  • A Common Concern

    “I can’t keep my CPAP mask on my face comfortably.”

    Mask leaks, when the mask feels loose on your face, are a key reason people with sleep apnea get frustrated and give up on PAP therapy.

    The Kricket Answer

    Kricket™ demonstrated 40% lower unintentional mask leak compared with CPAP in a clinical study, which may support a more comfortable therapy experience.²

  • A Common Concern

    “I struggle to fall asleep with CPAP.”

    Falling asleep with PAP therapy can be the hardest part. It doesn’t feel natural to have a force of air fight against your breathing all night.

    The Kricket Answer

    Kricket’s K-Delay feature gradually eases you into your prescribed pressure, designed to make therapy feel more natural as you fall asleep.

  • A Common Concern

    “I gave up on PAP therapy before.”

    We hear you. CPAP is the gold standard for sleep apnea treatment, but it’s a therapy many patients struggle to tolerate.

    The Kricket Answer

    Sleep physicians at SleepRes watched too many patients give up on the therapy they need. So, they developed Kricket, powered by KPAP which was designed to provide a more comfortable PAP experience while maintaining efficacy comparable to CPAP. In a clinical study, 93% of PAP-naive participants preferred KPAP over CPAP.²

Frequently asked questions

CPAP maintains therapeutic pressure throughout the entire breath cycle. KPAP™, delivers the right pressure at the right time. It provides less pressure when you breathe in and restores therapeutic pressure in late exhalation, the Kairos, when the airway is most vulnerable.

See how it works

In clinical trials, 93% of patients preferred KPAP over CPAP.2 While individual results vary, Kricket addresses several of the most common reasons people give up on therapy—including pressure intolerance and mask leak.

Specific coverage depends on your plan and your DME provider. We can help you understand your options.

No. Kricket is compatible with most standard PAP masks.

You’ll need a healthcare provider to prescribe Kricket. If you already have one, you can ask your doctor about it directly.

Yes. Kricket received FDA 510(k) clearance in December 2025.

Kricket is the first and only PAP therapy device powered by KPAP. KPAP is a fundamentally different approach to pressure delivery, dynamically optimizing pressure across the entire breathing cycle. No other PAP therapy device has KPAP.

Yes. Kricket is allowed by the TSA to go through security.
