Compass Health recalls CPAP mask cushions from model PB781S, PB781M, PB781L, 781S, 781M and 781L due to incompatibility between new cushion seals and old elbow designs, risking CO2 porting. Affected users should check their model numbers.
A May 2015 design change in the cushion seal replacement part and accompanying elbow replacement part resulted in incompatibility of the new cushion seal with the previous design of the elbow. Use of the new cushion seal with the previous design elbow could lead to unacceptable CO2 porting. As there was no model number change for this design change, customers may not be aware of the incompatibility.
Compass Health is recalling CPAP mask cushions with model numbers PB781S, PB781M, PB781L, 781S, 781M and 781L because a 2015 design change caused incompatibility between the cushion seal and elbow. This incompatibility could lead to CO2 porting, which may affect sleep apnea treatment.
A 2015 design change made the new cushion seal incompatible with older elbow designs. Using the new seal with the old elbow could cause CO2 porting, which means the CPAP machine might not function properly and could affect sleep apnea treatment.
People using CPAP machines with these specific model cushions are affected. Those with sleep apnea who rely on CPAP therapy are most at risk due to potential treatment disruption.
Check your CPAP mask cushion model number on the product. Affected models include PB781S, PB781M, PB781L, 781S, 781M and 781L. All units manufactured after May 1, 2015 are included in this recall.
