Action

Firm notified customers through mailed letter "URGENT Medical Device Recall" on April 1, 2024. The letter described the product, problem and actions to be taken. The firm reminded customers to refer to the user manual and to perform a clinical assessment prior to placing a patient on the ventilator to ensure that: 1. The device is appropriately set for patient requirements. 2. Alternate ventilation equipment is available. 3. Alternative monitoring is used where appropriate. Depending on the level of ventilatory support required, customers were advised to place patients on an alternate source of ventilation. Philips is currently investigating the issue. If you need any further information or support concerning this issue, please contact your local Philips Respironics representative: 1-800-345-6443, prompts 4, 5 or email at [email protected].

In the notice customers were provided additional guidance on how to operate the device when a Ventilator Inoperative Alarm occurs and how to perform an optional hard reboot of their device that will temporarily restore functionality. An UPDATE URGENT Medical Device Recall Notice was mailed to consignees on 5/20/25 providing instructions on how to perform a Hard Reboot in the instance of a Ventilator Inoperable Alarm condition.
