Case Overview
In June 2021, Philips Respironics issued a massive recall of millions of CPAP, BiPAP, and mechanical ventilator machines due to a defective sound abatement foam (PE-PUR) that could break down and release toxic black particles and chemicals directly into the air pathway. Users of these devices—primarily sleep apnea patients—may have been inhaling or ingesting carcinogenic and toxic foam particles for years while sleeping.
