Common Injuries Sustained
The PE-PUR foam can expose users of these devices to two types of injuries. The foam may fall apart into pieces and get into the air the device pushes into the individual’s lungs or the foam might release harmful chemicals into the airflow.
As a result, the following injuries may occur:
- Cough
- Irritation to the skin, eyes, or respiratory tract
- Asthma
- Sinus infection
- Vomiting
- Cancer
- Organ damage (to the kidney and liver)
- Nausea
- Headache and dizziness
If you are using one of these devices, stop using it and speak to your health care provider as soon as possible. You should also register your device with Philips and contact our legal team as soon as possible.
