Philips Respironics Trilogy Evo ventilator recalled for delayed obstruction alarm
What this means
Some Philips Respironics Trilogy Evo home ventilators with Software Version 1.05.15.00 may not sound their obstruction alarm quickly enough if the breathing tube becomes blocked. The alarm could be delayed by up to four breaths, which could reduce the time a user has to respond to an airway obstruction.
- Contact Philips Respironics to check if your device is affected and to discuss next steps
- Do not stop using your ventilator without talking to your doctor first
- Keep emergency contact information for your respiratory care provider readily available
