Phillips / Philips recall..website links so you can check your machine yourself & some additional information

Post by Pugsy » Thu Jun 17, 2021 4:08 pm

Sticky..Website link to plug in serial number to see if your machine is affected.
Sticky only....no need for discussion. Just putting this out in front because even though it's mentioned multiple times in the big thread...people aren't reading it.

First link...you choose if you are a DME or patient...then you choose country.
Right now it's for Canada and the USA only. Other countries to be added shortly it says.

https://www.philipssrcupdate.expertinquiry.com/

Please note to make sure that you have the blower serial number and not the humidifier serial number.
Make sure you have the entire serial number as shown on the machine without any typos....exactly as seen on the sticker.

You can check your machine yourself....no need to ask your doctor or DME to do it.

I don't know about what happens after you "check unit"....... I can't proceed because I don't have any Respironics machines now.

I have heard that sometimes it seems hung up or slow...expect that and be patient. Remember there are likely a whole bunch of other people using the link to check their machines.

Someone has reported that the links above do not work for them...not sure why but I just checked and the first link still works for me...but the second link loads but shows me nothing.

Also a new phone number to call...not sure if it is on the above websites or not but here it is. phone # 877-907-7508 -- PR RECALL HOTLINE

Another link to recall/FSN website in case the above doesn't work.
I have had a few people tell me my links don't work for them. They still work for me...but here's another link.

another link with some official Philips additional documentation about thoughts on using inline bacterial filters as a work around.

https://www.philips.com/c-dam/b2bhc/mas ... NTQwOC42MA..

Short version...they don't recommend it.

New link above provided by jlfinkels that he ran across and sent me a note about.
Philips has a new web interface into their device replacement management process that allows users to prioritize their place in the queue for a replacement.
Thank you Jeff.
