- Summary: Respironics California, LLC, in collaboration with Philips (China) Investment Co., Ltd., has initiated a voluntary Class III recall for certain ventilator models. This significant action, reported to the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) on October 7, 2023, addresses a critical product safety concern impacting devices registered under National Medical Device Registration Certificate 20163085139.
