I know for fact, it will just about take an act of God to answer the question you are posing. I admire your tenacity, so please don't misread my comments as ridiculing, which was a totally incorrect read there. I agree with all else in your last post. I accept your response and thank you for your comments. RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - btreger - 09-10-2021 (09-10-2021, 02:14 PM)btreger Wrote: I accept your response and thank you for your comments.I think we should all try to do something, unfortunately, I do not know the answer. I do know that 12 years from now, I do not want to have to live through this again, for maybe the next time it could be even worse. Come to think about it, I do have a few thoughts:
RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - btreger - 09-10-2021 RE: >Post 1345< Maybe I am being too suspicious, but in that post, Sen. Richard Blumenthal told Philips he wanted answers to very specific questions by Sept.07. On that date is when we first started hearing about DS2 deliveries. Is that just a coincidence, or did the Senator's demands force Philips into its current actions without having a complete plan or strategy? I know no one has that answer, but I think it is worth considering. Especially since we have no other information to go by. RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - Zalagar - 09-10-2021 I saw people stating they were receiving DS2's well before September 7th. But before then I had only seen around 3 people that had gotten them, at least ones that had posted about it. It definitely picked up a lot more over time. RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - Zalagar - 09-10-2021 I just signed into the DreamMapper app for the first time since 2016, re-connected my machine and let it upload the data. Hoping that is the secret. MY uncle is stuck using his DS1 with the stupid in-line filters and he hates it, but he has to have his machine. He got his machine in like January of this year, but for some reason, his insurance won't let him swap to a new machine... I don't want to take the foam out and possibly void the warranty or prevent replacement for him. I'm hoping I can either get a DS2 or a repaired machine for him soon. My Brother in Nevada is still using his Remstar Auto with his SoClean every single day also, he had no clue about the recall, when I went to visit him, I made sure to register his machine, but sadly his will probably take months to replace RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - Zalagar - 09-10-2021 I've also been trying to swap to a Resmed AirSense 10 or 11 as soon as possible, my machine is over 5 years old, I had to get a new sleep study, it has now been almost a full month since the sleep study and my doctor still hasn't gotten the results yet. Not sure if it is a staffing issue or why it is taking so long. The sleep center is the same company as my Doctors office, the data is shared, so not sure why they haven't input the data. So it's been around 2 months now I've been trying to get a new machine, still waiting, it's very frustrating. My Doctor just told me to keep using my DS1 until I can get a new one, he said "You've already been using your machine for 5 Years, what's another 1-2 months?"... RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - btreger - 09-11-2021 NEW UPDATE FROM THE FDA: Q: When will the devices start to be repaired or replaced? (New 9/10/21) A: Philips Respironics announced external Link Disclaimer on September 1, 2021, “Philips anticipates rework to commence in the course of September 2021. In addition to the rework, the company has already started replacing certain affected first-generation DreamStation CPAP devices in the U.S. with DreamStation 2 CPAP devices” and “intends to complete the repair and replacement programs within approximately 12 months.” Q: What is the status of Philips Respironics’ plans for repairing or replacing the devices? (New 9/10/21) Philips Respironics’ implementation of a plan to fix the problems with the Philips Respironics products is a high priority for the FDA. The FDA reviewed and concurred with Philips’ Respironics plan for recalled DreamStation CPAP and BiPAP machines, specifically DreamStation CPAP; Pro, Auto (All Configurations), Dream Station BiPAP; Pro, Auto (All Configurations), and DreamStation ST, ASV, AVAPS (All Configurations). The FDA is committed to using every tool at our disposal to increase the availability of these medical products. The FDA is working with Philips Respironics to monitor the repair or replacement of impacted devices as expeditiously as possible and is continuing to gather information to inform our actions. We are collaborating with other manufacturers and government partners to support the availability of CPAP and BiPAP machines. Philips Respironics has not yet provided the FDA with all the information needed for the FDA to evaluate the plan to repair and replace products across all the Philips Respironics’ recalled devices, including the Trilogy ventilators, A-series BiPAP machines, C-series BiPAP machines, OmniLab Advanced+, Garbin Plus, Aeris, LifeVen, E30 ventilator, REMstar SE Auto, and E30. The FDA has also initiated on-site inspections of Philips Respironics’ manufacturing facilities to assess compliance with regulatory requirements. You can read the full statement at this link; Philips Respironics CPAP, BiPAP, and Ventilator Recall: Frequently Asked Questions | FDA RE: RECALL THREAD-- IMPORTANT PHILIPS DREAMSTATION & SYSTEM ONE USERS - btreger - 09-11-2021 (09-10-2021, 07:56 PM)Zalagar Wrote: I had to get a new sleep study, it has now been almost a full month since the sleep study and my doctor still hasn't gotten the results yet. Can you explain why you had to get a new sleep study? You own the machine after 5 years, and your doctor gets the reports of your daily use. Is it an insurance issue or a pass the buck situation. NON-DREAMSTATION RECALLED DEVICES - WakeUpTime - 09-11-2021 (09-11-2021, 08:15 AM)btreger Wrote: That's incredibly bad news for non-DreamStation owners. For those of us with these recalled devices, that have been inhaling/ingesting the old decomposing carcinogenic faulty foam for the longest period of time, we'll likely be waiting a significant period of time for a fix. (09-10-2021, 04:12 PM)btreger Wrote: Maybe I am being too suspicious, but in that post, Sen. Richard Blumenthal told Philips he wanted answers to very specific questions by Sept.07. It's my belief that every effort to put pressure on Philips has contributed (and will continue to contribute) to better outcomes for all recalled device owners. Whether it's from your significant contributions, or those others who have done various things like calling their local Senator, reaching out to law firms, etc., it's going to continue to help make for quicker faster better outcomes. I really commend those efforts as they went far beyond satisfying one's own personal interests.
