Philips Trilogy Evo Ventilator Recall: Potential Loss of Ventilation Due to False Alarm
Philips is recalling the Trilogy Evo Universal Ventilator for a software defect that triggers false low-battery or power-loss alarms despite sufficient power, risking sudden ventilation loss.
What this means for you
Illness, injury, or structural failure has been reported. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.
Our severity reasoning: FDA Class I classification applies to this recall. The rule requires never going below severity 4 for Class I medical device recalls. Although no illnesses or deaths are reported, the potential for sudden loss of ventilation in a critical life-support device justifies the Severe score.
Plain-English summary
Philips Respironics, Inc. is recalling the Trilogy Evo Universal Ventilator (all software versions except 1.05.06.00), a device used for pediatric and adult patients. Approximately 9,999 units have been distributed nationwide and internationally. The affected model is DS2000X11B with UDI-DI 606959052000.
A software defect may cause the ventilator to display a 'Battery Depleted' or 'Loss of Power' alarm even when the unit has sufficient power. This false alarm condition could result in sudden loss of ventilation, creating a risk to patients who depend on the device for breathing support.
Patients and healthcare providers should verify they are running software version 1.05.06.00, which is not affected by this issue. Devices with other software versions should be updated to version 1.05.06.00 or discontinued from use. Contact Philips Respironics for technical support or software updates.
