Statement BASS regarding recall of Philips machines
(CPAP, BiPAP, ventilators)
15/06/2021
Recall van beademingstoestellen van de firma
Philips
Als BASS werden we geïnformeerd over mogelijke problemen met
CPAP- en beademingstoestellen van het merk Philips. Zowel de ernst
als de reikwijdte zijn op dit moment nog onduidelijk. Wij zijn in
afwachting van nadere informatie hierover van Philips. Een
risico-afweging is vooralsnog onmogelijk aangezien niet geweten is
wat het absolute risico is. Wij staan als wetenschappelijke
vereniging in contact met de fabrikant en volgen de situatie kort
op. Wij komen terug bij u, zodra duidelijk is dat er actie
ondernomen dient te worden.
Wij adviseren vooralsnog om het risico van eventueel tijdelijk
onderbreken van een CPAP behandeling voor iedere patiënt
afzonderlijk te evalueren en de beademingstoestellen voorlopig te
blijven gebruiken.
Rappel des respirateurs de la société
Philips
La BASS a été informée de possibles problèmes avec les CPAP et
les ventilateurs de marque Philips. La gravité et la portée ne sont
toujours pas clairs pour le moment. Nous attendons de plus amples
informations à ce sujet de la part de Philips. Une évaluation des
risques est impossible car on ne sait pas quel est le risque
absolu. En tant que societé scientifique, nous sommes en contact
avec le fabricant et suivons de près la situation. Nous reviendrons
vers vous dès qu'il sera clair que des mesures doivent être
prises.
Pour le moment, nous conseillons d'évaluer individuellement le
risque d'une éventuelle interruption temporaire d'un traitement
CPAP et de continuer à utiliser les respirateurs.
