About Medical Device Defects
In general, advancements in medical devices have led to substantial improvements to the health and quality of life of the nation’s citizens. Unfortunately, however, defective medical devices, while they may be rare, have had devastating and even deadly effects, harming the very people they were designed to help. Those affected by defective medical products do have recourse under the law. With the aid of a qualified personal injury attorney, victims of defective medical devices can seek compensation for losses and expenses stemming from their injuries.
As with other product liability cases in NY, cases involving defective medical devices can be built upon three possible types of defects: design defects, manufacturing defects, and marketing defects. A claim can also be filed against a company that failed to properly test a product prior to making it available to the public, as well as any company that minimized or deliberately ignored potential risks involved in the use of the device.
Types Of Defective Medical Devices
Our defective medical device & medical malpractice attorneys in Manhattan, New York routinely handle defective product claims involving such medical devices as:
- Coated heart valves
- Incontinence devices
- Knee or hip replacements
- Dental sealants and implants
- Heart devices, such as pacemakers
- Devices used in eye surgery, such as lasers
- Blood glucose meters
Defective product claims may also be filed when people are harmed by products used in cosmetic surgery, such as breast implants. Action can be taken against multiple defendants if more than one party is responsible for the defect in the medical device.
In most product liability cases, the legal doctrine of strict liability applies. According to this doctrine, a personal injury lawyer does not have to give evidence of a specific act of negligence on the part of the defendant or defendants, as the flaw in the product is sufficient evidence of negligence in and of itself.
