On June 14, 2021, Philips issued a voluntary recall of three types of devices.
These products all contributed to a potential increased risk of lung cancer in its users.
Only products within the USA have been recalled.
Recalled Philips CPAP products include:
Philips has produced thousands of these CPAP devices and has received complaints on 0.03% of these products.
The FDA has not yet mandated a recall of these CPAP devices, but after receiving reports lining their CPAP devices to adverse health risks, Philips issued a recall of the following devices.
The total list of devices recalled can be found on Philips’ CPAP recall announcement, or as listed below.
There are two reasons for the recall – foam and chemical emissions.
In both scenarios, all the products recalled were manufactured prior to April 26, 2021, and caused a variety of adverse health effects, including lung cancer:
The polyester-based foam inside the affected devices is one of the main causes for the recall.
The foam inside the machines can deteriorate and particles can then travel through the machine tubes and into the lungs.
It’s likely that heat, humidity, and improper cleaning can all contribute to accelerating the deterioration of this foam.
The other primary cause for the recall was the chemical emissions that contributed to the increase in lung cancer diagnosis among users.
This occurred because when newly opened, the chemicals released into the air could combine with other chemicals in the room in a process called off-gassing, and create harmful toxins.
In turn, these toxins may lead to lung cancer among other harmful side effects.
These products may use a different foam or may have the foam located in a different, non-threatening location.
They may also not have the same chemical emissions as Philips’s recalled products:
Under any circumstance, owners of affected devices should contact a physician immediately.
Discontinue use of the device, and consult with a physician.
Do not stop or alter therapy until consulting with a physician.
Foam-related and chemical-related injuries can often be the same.
However, there are a few types that can only be caused by one (1) of the two (2) irritants:
Those who used these recalled products are at a higher risk for developing lung cancer.
If you used one of these products and received a lung cancer diagnosis after doing so, this may be your chance to hold Philips accountable for your injuries.
Although no deaths have been reported, it is known that the company was first alerted of this risk in April 2021.
The first thing you should do upon suffering an injury like lung cancer is to discontinue the use of the product that injured you, if possible and if advised by a physician.
You also need to see a doctor as soon as possible.
After this has been done, treating the injury will largely be up to you, and how well you follow the doctor’s orders.
If you plan to take legal action, working with a lawyer can help you through a process like this, and make sure it is done correctly and with minimal stress.
Take the following steps:
If you have suffered any of the injuries listed previously in this article, see a doctor immediately.
It is in your best interest to follow the doctor’s instructions as well as you can.
Mitigating injuries will yield the best returns on your health and well-being, as well as potential financial compensation from any legal action you take.
Once you have received proper medical attention and follow instructions given by your physician, contact a TorHoerman Law Philips CPAP injury lawyer for a free, no-obligation case consultation.
Compensation depends on a wide range of factors.
As such, it is important to speak with a lawyer about a potential lawsuit.
A lawyer may be able to award you with compensation for things such as:
This reward will depend largely on the severity and the length of the injury.
Although it is largely subjective and varies from case to case, it is one of the most prominent damages one can claim.
These include any medical expense that is related to your injury.
These bills often come from places like:
Lost wages can include wages that were lost during any stage of the injury, including loss of future wages due to the injury.
Life-altering injuries do exactly that, they alter your life.
If your spouse feels that this injury has negatively affected your life socially, intimately, or in other related ways – you can file for loss of consortium.
This category of damages might include things like:
Filing a lawsuit requires extreme attention to detail as well as a comprehensive understanding of the litigation process in order to reach your end goal.
To navigate this while suffering a major injury can be overwhelming to many.
With the help of your lawyer, you will begin one of the most important steps:
The amount of compensation you can receive from such a case as the Philips lung cancer case can fluctuate greatly, but in order to receive the maximum, it is pertinent that you gather evidence, prove injury mitigation attempts, and find a lawyer right for you.
You may be rewarded a much higher compensation if you did your best to treat an injury that was not your fault.
A TorHoerman Philips lung cancer lawyer can help you do this.
Hiring a lawyer for any personal injury can be difficult, especially with an injury as stressful as lung cancer.
You should be able to rest assured knowing that your lawyer has extensive knowledge of the legal system as well as a history of successful lawsuits.
A lawyer like this will help you gather evidence and guide you through this sometimes lengthy process en route to satisfactory compensation.
