CPAP recall litigation
Lawsuits allege that recalled Philips Respironics CPAP, BiPAP, and ventilator machines exposed sleeping users to degraded polyurethane foam particles and off-gassed chemicals.

What the lawsuits allege
In June 2021, Philips recalled millions of sleep and respiratory care devices because the sound-abatement foam inside could break down into particles and volatile compounds that users inhaled or swallowed. The litigation alleges Philips knew about the degradation problem long before the recall.
Personal injury claims continue for users who developed qualifying injuries after using a recalled device.
Injuries named in the litigation
