In the last 13 years, have you been using a Philips Respironics CPAP machine for your sleep apnea, only to come down with bouts of nausea or dizziness, kidney or lung damage or even cancer?
Living with sleep apnea or other respiratory ailments are difficult enough, along with having to use a CPAP machine. Millions of CPAP, BiPAP and ventilator machines have been recalled due to the use of foam in the products. The abatement foam was used to make the machines less noisy during use, but ended up breaking down and released particles into the air. Many of the chemicals in the foam include known carcinogens. As these particles are inhaled, they can lead to devastating health effects such as lung and kidney disease or cancer.
Philips Respironics models include the DreamStation CPAP, Auto CPAP and BiPAP, DreamStation GO CPAP, APAP and Auto CPAP, the System One 50 and 60 series CPAPs, Auto CPAPs and BiPAPs. For the full list of devices, visit the Philips website for more detail.
Give our firm a call today for a free consultation if you used a Philips Respironics CPAP, BiPAP or ventilator and are experiencing any of the symptoms associated with the foam breakdown in the CPAP machines.
If your claim has already been denied, you will learn how you can fight back with the right information and win the long-term care insurance benefits you deserve.
