Common Defective Medical Devices

A medical device is a device medical professionals may use to help patients treat a disease, condition, or illness. Certain medical devices are more prone to encounter defective product claims, including:

  • Defibrillators
  • Implants, such as hip or shoulder replacements
  • Stents
  • Contraceptive devices

Types of Medical Device Claims

The direction of your case, as well as the compensation you’re entitled to, will depend on your specific defective product claim. Here are the three most common types:

  • Defective manufacturing. If a medical device is manufactured improperly, damaged during shipping, or damaged due to an error at the hospital or physician’s office, you may have a claim against a defectively manufactured device.
  • Defective design. A defective design claim may occur if the medical device featured an inherently dangerous or risky design that caused your injury or illness.
  • Defective marketing. If warnings about the risks or safety concerns of using the medical device were not properly conveyed, it is considered defective marketing, which may provide you with grounds for a lawsuit.

Who Can You Sue for a Defective Medical Device?

A variety of individuals and entities may be held responsible for the damages, injuries, and losses you’ve experienced due to a defective medical device, including:

  • The device manufacturer. In many cases, the manufacturer of the device is a defendant in a defective product claim. As the manufacturer is usually a large corporation, it’s important to retain a legal team that is vastly experienced in taking on these powerful entities.
  • The sales representative. The sales representative who sold the device to doctors may also be held responsible if they recommended a medical device that ultimately caused your injury.
  • Your doctor. Your doctor may be liable for your injuries if he or she did not warn you about the risks and potential dangers of using the device, or if he or she failed to provide you with the device’s safety and proper use instructions.

How Long Do You Have to File a Medical Device Lawsuit?

One of the most important things to know about filing a medical device lawsuit is that time is not on your side. Every state has a legal deadline – called the statute of limitations – that limits how long you have to bring a claim. The time frame in Florida is two years in most instances. If you miss the deadline, you could lose your right to pursue compensation forever, no matter how strong your case is.

The Discovery Rule

That said, medical device claims are often subject to what’s known as the discovery rule. This legal principle acknowledges that patients may not immediately realize a device is defective or causing harm.

For example, you might start experiencing pain or complications years after your implant surgery. In such cases, the clock on the statute of limitations often starts when you discover – or reasonably should have discovered – the injury and its connection to the device.

Because of these complexities, it’s critical to act quickly. The longer you wait, the harder it may be to gather medical records, preserve evidence, and file your claim before time runs out.

If you suspect a medical device is causing issues, contact a Goldberg & Rosen medical device attorney as soon as possible to protect your rights.

Signs a Medical Device May Be Failing

Recognizing early signs of device failure can make a big difference in your health and legal case. If you’ve received an implant or medical device, stay alert to the following symptoms:

  • Persistent pain or swelling at the implant site.
  • Mobility issues or loss of function that wasn’t present before.
  • Infection, including redness, warmth, or discharge around the surgical area.
  • Device migration, which is when the implant shifts or moves from its original position.
  • Unexplained symptoms such as fatigue, fever, or metal poisoning.
  • Rehospitalization or the need for revision surgery to fix or replace the device.

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, you must immediately speak with your doctor and a Goldberg & Rosen medical device lawyer. These symptoms could indicate a defective product, and early legal action can help preserve vital evidence and strengthen your case.

Why You Need a Medical Device Attorney

Taking on a medical device manufacturer is not something you should do alone. These companies have vast resources, legal teams, and insurance companies protecting their bottom line.

Many defective device cases are part of large-scale class actions or multidistrict litigation (MDL) proceedings, which involve complex procedures that require experience and strategic planning.

A skilled Goldberg & Rosen medical device attorney understands the science behind these products, knows how to prove liability, and can work with top medical experts to strengthen your claim. More importantly, your lawyer can fight to secure full compensation for your medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.

At Goldberg & Rosen, we’ve represented many individuals harmed by defective medical devices, including hip implants, IVC filters, hernia mesh, and more. We’re proud of our track record in these cases, including multiple seven-figure settlements for clients who needed revision surgery or suffered permanent injuries.

From the first meeting of Brett Rosen (Goldberg & Rosen) I was impressed. Brett was respectful, kind and extremely knowledgeable. The second time we met he actually came to my father's house and talked with us about my father's case. I never imagined that he would actually come to the house. This action and the meeting that followed assured my father and I that Goldberg & Rosen was the right firm to handle our case. Our case did not make it into court for another 3+ years and like clockwork Brett or the lead attorney he appointed to our case would check it with us every few months.

FAQ Defective Medical Devices

What qualifies as a defective medical device?

A medical device may be considered defective if it has a flaw in design, manufacturing, or marketing (such as inadequate warnings) that leads to injury or illness. Devices that are recalled or linked to widespread complications often form the basis for legal claims.

How do I know if my medical device is causing problems?

Some signs may include unexpected pain, swelling, limited mobility, infection, or the need for revision surgery. If your doctor recommends replacing or removing a device earlier than expected, it could be a red flag.

Can I sue even if the device hasn’t been recalled?

Yes. A recall isn’t required to bring a lawsuit. You may still have a valid legal claim if you were harmed by a poorly designed device, an improperly manufactured device, or a device that lacked adequate warnings.

Who can be held responsible for my injuries?

Depending on the circumstances, liable parties may include the device manufacturer, distributors, sales representatives, or even your medical provider if they failed to warn you or used the device improperly.

What compensation can I recover in a defective medical device case?

You may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, future treatment, and more. In some cases, punitive damages may also be awarded.

How can a medical device lawyer help?

These cases are complex and often involve fighting large corporations. A knowledgeable medical device attorney can investigate your case, work with medical experts, and pursue the maximum compensation you deserve.
