PHILIPS RESPIRONICS EUROPEAN CLASS ACTION CPAP DEVICES RECALL LAWSUIT - CLAIM YOUR RIGHTS, DEFEND YOUR HEALTH “SERIOUS, LIFE-THREATENING INJURIES, PERMANENT DAMAGE, OR REQUIRE MEDICAL INTERVENTION TO PREVENT PERMANENT DAMAGE“ CRITICALLY WRONG QUALITY DECISIONS WHERE TAKEN IN MILAN FOR ALL EUROPEAN PRODUCTS OVER 1,2 MILLION USER/PATIENTS AFFECTED IN EUROPE IN 2021—PHILIPS ISSUED A FIELD SAFETY NOTICE FOR THE RECALL OF RESPIRATORY DEVICES In 2021, Philips issued a recall notice admitting the issue. Philips manufactured and marketed sleep and respiratory care devices (details) containing polyurethane ester foams instead of the safer ether foams. The polyurethane ester foam degrades and disintegrates, leading to its particles being inhaled and entering the bodies of patients. Users have been, exposed to toxic compounds that Philips acknowledges can cause “serious, life-threatening injuries, permanent damage, or require medical intervention to prevent permanent damage.” Documents reveal that Philips failed to inform users and healthcare providers of these risks for many years. Affected users may be eligible for compensation. In April 2024, Philips announced it was settling all personal injury cases pending in the U.S. class action. LEGAL INITIATIVES FOR PHILIPS RESPIRONICS DEVICE USERS EXPOSED TO TOXIC SUBSTANCES WE ARE FILING AN EUROPEAN WIDE CLASS ACTION TO GUARANTEE FULL AND FAIR COMPENSATION TO ALL EXPOSED USERS Emotional Distress Bodily Alteration Personal Injuries Wrongful Death Emotional Distress refers to psychological harm caused by the fear and anxiety related to the potential exposure to harmful substances from the recalled Philips devices. example: a patient learns that their recalled Philips device has been recalled due to the risk of inhaling toxic foam particles. This news leads to severe anxiety, fear of long-term health consequences, and sleepless nights worrying about potential cancer risks and other serious health issues. Bodily Alteration involves internal physical changes or damage resulting from the harmful effects of the recalled Philips devices. example: a patient medical examinations reveal the presence of dangerous particulates embedded in their body tissues after using a recalled Philips device. This discovery indicates that the particulates have caused significant internal damage, leading to permanent alterations in their health, such as chronic lung issues or other systemic effects requiring ongoing medical intervention. Personal Injuries involve physical harm or illness directly caused by the harmful substances emitted from the recalled Philips devices. example: a patient using a recalled Philips device develops respiratory issues, such as chronic bronchitis or exacerbation of asthma, due to inhaling the toxic foam particles. These conditions necessitate ongoing medical treatment and significantly impact the patient's quality of life. Wrongful Death claims arise when a patient's death is directly attributable to the exposure to dangerous substances from the recalled Philips CPAP devices. example: a patient using a recalled Philips device dies from lung cancer that, according to medical evaluations, was likely caused by prolonged exposure to carcinogenic foam particles released from the defective device. The patient's family files a wrongful death lawsuit against Philips, claiming that the faulty device led to the untimely death.
