What Did Philips Do?
Sleep apnea is a serious condition that affects millions of people worldwide. The use of CPAP and BiPAP machines has been pivotal in managing this condition, but recent news has caused concern for those who rely on these devices.
Philips made enormous profits selling a variety of ventilators, BiPAP, and CPAP machines. In these recalled machines, Philips used a foam with a dangerous chemical, polyester-based polyurethane (PE-PUR), to mitigate the machines’ noise.
Polyester-based polyurethane particles pose a significant risk when they are inhaled or ingested. The health risks associated with exposure to these particles should not be underestimated. Prolonged exposure to these particles can lead to respiratory issues, causing breathing difficulties and potentially exacerbating existing respiratory conditions.
The polyester-based foam in the recalled devices quickly broke down. The broken-down foam was then inhaled by unsuspecting users. According to various news sources, Philips received thousands of complaints about the deteriorating foam and Philips received thousands of complaints about serious injuries incurred as a result. Despite receiving these numerous complaints, Philips failed to provide the FDA with thousands of consumer complaints related to the defective devices. Because of this, the FDA was delayed in issuing a recall. Sadly, it appears corporate greed drove this unethical decision to keep a known dangerous product on the market. Philips knew about this serious issue as far back as 2010 yet failed to take ethical action.
There is currently a massive class action lawsuit. This lawsuit has been brought against Philips to hold them accountable for selling deadly, CPCP, BiPAP, and ventilators to the public.

What was dangerous about the Philips’ ventilators, CPAP and BiPAP machines?
CPAP and BiPAP machines play a critical role in improving sleep quality and overall health. Philips offers a range of CPAP and BiPAP machines, each with unique features and benefits. Additionally, Philips manufactures ventilators that can save lives.
Philips received complaints that their ventilators, CPAP, and BiPAP machines were noisy. They then added a foam made out of a polyester-based polyurethane (PE-PUR) to mitigate the noise. This foam—rather quickly—broke down and created a health hazard for thousands upon thousands of people. In essence, those who used their CPAP and other Philips devices to make their life better were quickly being poisoned. Users were beginning to note seeing “black particles” and other “oily-like” substances come from their machines. Eventually, many of these individuals became ill or even died. Some illness caused by Philips were:
– COPD
-Asthma
-Pulmonary Fibrosis
-Cancer
-Kidney Damage
-Liver Damage
-Heart Damage
-Death
These are just some of the documented illnesses Philips caused the unsuspecting public. Many users have reported being diagnosed with serious cancers of the kidney, liver, and stomach.
