Florida Medtronic® Heart Device Recall Attorneys

It's one of the most trusted names in healthcare products. In recent years, it's also become one of the most controversial: Medtronic heart devices have been plagued with a series of recalls, lawsuits, and bad news stories. What are the dangers of Medtronic heart devices? What is done to inform patients of these problems and compensate them for their injuries? And what can you do if you've been injured?

Medtronic manufactures heart devices as diverse as heart monitors, heart valves, defibrillators, pacemakers, and stents. The most recent recalls and problems involve defective heart pump implants, which were found susceptible to stalling and sudden stoppage, defibrillator leads that were found to be defective and stopped the defibrillators from working properly, and battery shorts in certain models of defibrillators. Though the FDA works closely with Medtronic to inform the public about these recalls and get the products off the market, the products' defects don't leave everyone unscathed. Hundreds and perhaps even thousands of patients experience severe side effects from malfunctioning Medtronic heart devices - effects that can prove life-threatening.

While many are contented to get a new device and move on with their lives, others want to know how to fight back against Medtronic's repeated infractions of patient trust. Patients can fight back against improperly manufactured and poorly designed Medtronic heart devices in the civil courts, where they can seek compensation for their injuries, the costs of treatment, the effects of disability, and other issues. However, due to the complex nature of defective medical product litigation and the challenges faced by personal injury litigation in general, it is recommended that individuals who wish to file a Medtronic lawsuit do so with the assistance of an attorney who has the experience and reputation it takes to prevail in court.
