What Are CPAP, BiPAP, and Mechanical Ventilators For?
Mechanical ventilators help patients breathe. A patient on a mechanical ventilator may have a fitted mask or a breathing tube that goes into their lungs.
A mechanical ventilator sometimes provides short-term breathing support. Mechanical ventilators may be needed for long-term use when patients have a chronic illness that makes breathing difficult.
Why is Phillips CPAP being Recalled?
Philips recalled their CPAPs because the machines contain polyurethane foam, which can degrade in the machine and then escape to be ingested by the CPAP user. There is evidence that urethane exposure causes lung, liver, blood, and other cancers in animals, and class action lawsuits are pending.
