Medical Device Recall

The Higgins Firm can Help You With Your Medical Device Recall Claim

When people are injured, they rely on their physicians to assist them in regaining their health. Many times people will need surgery and the implanting of medical devices, such as hip replacement parts, pacemakers, or tendon replacements, to assist in their recovery. While many of these products have been helpful, these medical devices can have faults in their design, engineering, or manufacturing.

Medical devices include a vast range of equipment that include complicated and intricate machines that are only used by specially trained medical professionals all the way to the more simple everyday products. The ramifications of a faulty medical device are more often than not devastating as they can require additional surgery with its inherent risks, additional rehabilitation, lost time from family activities and lost work. Whether the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a recall or merely fielded consumer complaints for a medical device, you may be eligible for damages relating to the losses that you have suffered. Contact our Nashville Medical Device Recall Lawyers today.

Do The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Rules and Regulations Protect Me From Harmful Medical Devices?

The FDA oversees the safety of all medical devices marketed and used in the country. The FDA monitors and requires certain testing protocols before devices are placed onto the market for consumers to use. However, testing periods are often not long enough to determine whether certain products have detrimental side effects over longer periods of time. The FDA will often field consumer complaints and monitor any potential side effects after a product has been placed onto the market. Typically, the FDA will not do anything in an official capacity until after accumulating research based on a large amount of complaints. Only after a number of complaints will the FDA act to issue a warning to the public or even a mass recall. However, this process often takes time and can come too late at your expense. You may be entitled to compensation regardless of the FDA’s designation of a product.
