Pain Pump Lawsuit
Pain Pump Shoulder Surgery Lawsuit
A 2007 study in the American Journal of Sports Medicine suggested that pain medicine pumps used after shoulder surgery may deliver too much medicine to the surgical site, causing serious damage to the shoulder cartilage. This condition is called Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis or PAGCL, and can result in the replacement of the entire shoulder.
On October 29, 2007 a Class 1 Recall was issued for the Cardinal Health Alaris® Infusion Pump Module (formerly Medley™ Pump Module), Model 8100. Class 1 Recalls are the most serious type of recall and involve situations in which there is a reasonable probability that use of the product will cause serious injury or death.
According to the FDA, the reason for the recall:
“During the manufacturing or servicing of the mechanism assembly, the occluder springs were misassembled (overlapping [nested], missing, bent or broken). If a spring is misassembled, there is a potential for inaccurate flow rate which may lead to a patient’s harm due to over-infusion.”
Over 27 different corporations are named as defendants, and all of them have joined together in opposing the consolidation of the litigation. We believe the manufacturers failed to warn about the risks associated with these pain pumps and should be held accountable for any harm they have caused.
