## CPAP MACHINES RECALLED

In June 2021 Philips recalled millions of CPAP and BiPAP machines due to foam degrading, causing users to inhale toxic particles and fumes. The recall was updated in November 2021.

The CPAP machine foam was intended to make the machines quieter and decrease vibration. It was later discovered that the foam was breaking down inside the machine, causing users to inhale and ingest the foam and also inhale toxic fumes. This resulted in users suffering serious, life-threatening health problems.

In September 2021, Phillips announced the “repair and replace” program for the recalled devices. This included replacing the degrading foam with new silicone foam. After presenting its alternative silicone-based foam to the FDA, the silicone replacement was approved based on testing that revealed it was a much safer option.

However, the FDA withdrew approval after further investigation showing the silicone foam creates a host of health and safety issues on its own. After continued investigations of the Philips CPAP recall, it is believed Philips knew about this issue with its machines in 2015. Philips ignored this matter for six years before taking action.
