Philips Respironics announced a voluntary recall for Continuous and Non-continuous Ventilators (certain CPAP, BiLevel PAP and Ventilator Devices) due to two issues related to the polyester-based polyurethane (PE-PUR) sound abatement foam used in these devices. The FDA has provided recommendations for people who use an affected device in its safety communication, including that you may continue to use your affected device if your health care provider determines that the benefits outweigh the risks identified in the recall notification.
