Philips Respironics Recall: Philips Respironics announced a voluntary recall for continuous and non-continuous ventilators, and certain CPAP, Bi-Level PAP and ventilator devices due to two issues related to the polyester-based polyurethane (PE-PUR) sound abatement foam used in these devices. To get your machine repaired or replaced, register your device and start your claim at https://www.philipssrcupdate.expertinquiry.com/ For additional information or for patients that do not have access to the internet to register your device, contact Philips Respironics at 877-907-7508.
The Gecko nasal mask pad by ResMed is a product designed to alleviate this common CPAP problem. The silicone seal of your mask, especially if it is not cleaned frequently, can cause redness and irritation on the bridge of your nose. This is most common with new users because the skin in that area is very sensitive and has not adjusted to having a silicone seal on it nightly.
