Philips Recall Notice for CPAP & Bilevel PAP Machines

Philips has issued a recall notification for a large number of their CPAP and Bilevel PAP machines.

Based on testing, Philips has determined that the type of foam used in these devices may degrade into particles which may enter a person’s airway and be ingested or inhaled into the lungs.

In accordance with recommendations from Philips and the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, we are advising patients to STOP using any affected Philips machine or device.

Please contact your CPAP equipment company and insurance company about receiving a replacement unit as soon as possible.

While waiting for your replacement unit, it is recommended that you sleep in an upright or semi-upright “recliner” position at night to reduce sleep apnea.
