ResMed does use foam in their CPAPs for sound reduction. However, when the Philips recall happened, they released a statement saying it was not the "polyester based polyurethane foam" that Philips used. That being said, in the ResMed Airsense 10, the foam is easy to remove if you're worried.
Thank you, that's good to know
