Defective Medical Devices
In order to improve or maintain your quality of life, medical devices may need to be implanted. While you may expect that only the highest quality medical devices be used, all too often people develop additional health problems when the medical device used for their procedure was improperly designed, tested, or manufactured.
Medical devices are used in many different surgical procedures to correct many different problems. Some of the defective medical device claims the Law Offices of Michael A. DeMayo, L.L.P. ® have represented have involved defective medical devices including:
- Bair Hugger Warming Blanket
- Calaxo® Bone Screw and ACL Injuries
- Cypher Stent
- Hip Replacements
- IVC Filters
- Guidant Heart Defibrillator
- Transvaginal Mesh
When a defective medical device injures you, the manufacturers of that product should be held responsible for your economic and non-economic losses. By filing a defective medical device claim, you may be able to recover compensation for many different types of losses, including:
- Medical Costs
- Lost Wages
- Future Medical Costs
- Pain and Suffering
- Permanent Disability
A defective medical device claim can be very difficult to handle without the aid of an experienced defective medical device lawyer. Your defective medical product claim can hold a few different parties liable for your losses, including:
