Protect the mask seal
Cutouts and shaped edges can leave room for full-face and nasal masks when side sleeping.
Pillow feature guide
CPAP Pillows
CPAP pillows use shaped edges, side cutouts, or adjustable loft to create room for a mask and hose. They can improve positioning comfort, but they do not replace prescribed equipment, settings, or clinical guidance.
Start with the fundamentals
What to know before buying
Plan the hose path
Check where your hose exits and whether the pillow leaves it free to move when you turn.
Keep therapy unchanged
A pillow is a positioning accessory, not a treatment or a reason to change prescribed CPAP settings.
