DENVER, CO & DALLAS, TX – The Wilhite Law Firm has announced that they are now reviewing claims for Bard PowerPort users who have suffered complications from the device.
“Patients with a Bard Powerport trusted the device to improve their condition, not to cause further issues,” says Managing Partner Robert Wilhite. “We want to help them demand the compensation they need to recover both physically and financially from these severe injuries.”
This port catheter device was designed to easily receive medication through the bloodstream. However, many patients have reported complications from the device, including infections, catheter fractures or migration, and blood clots. These injuries can have severe and even life-threatening effects.
According to lawsuits, the PowerPort contains high amounts of barium sulfate. This chemical compound can cause the device to break or crack. The company was allegedly made aware of these serious injuries resulting from their product years ago. However, they did nothing to warn other users or improve the device.
Over a dozen lawsuits have been filed against Bard for their negligence already. Many of these lawsuits allege that the company produced a defective product, was made aware of the danger, and hid the issues instead of warning consumers.
There is currently no class action lawsuit or open recall. However, Wilhite says victims can still file individual product liability claims against the company. Through a lawsuit, they may be entitled to compensation for their medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and other losses.
The Wilhite Law Firm is now offering free consultations to patients who suffered injuries from the Bard PowerPort. A lawyer from The Wilhite Law Firm can help identify valid claims and seek compensation through a defective product lawsuit.
