WhidbeyHealth’s Sleep Care was notified that Philips has issued a recall on many of their CPAP and BiPAP devices, many of which our patients use. We would like to inform our Sleep Care patients and community of the recall so action can be taken as needed.
If you currently use a Philips CPAP or BiPAP device, please visit Philips’ website to register your machine and see if you qualify for the recall. You can visit the Philips website here: https://www.philipssrcupdate.expertinquiry.com/.
If you have any questions, Philips has a section of their website that may help. You can visit the help section of the Philips website here: https://www.usa.philips.com/healthcare/e/sleep/communications/src-update#section_2.
If your CPAP or BiPAP device is listed as a recalled device, Philips recommends the following action:
- If you can stop using your device, please do so
- If you cannot stop using your device, please continue to use it
