Cost of healthcare increases with failure of hip implants | Toledo Ohio personal injury lawyer
Medical experts estimate that failed metal-on-metal hip implants may end up costing taxpayers, insurers and others billions of dollars.One manufacturer of this metal-on-metal hip implant is Depuy. The problem with these is that the wear of the metal parts against each other generates debris that is damaging to the tissue and is some cases has crippled patients.
In September 2011, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) received more than 5,000 adverse events reports in the first six months of 2011 regarding all-metal hips, which was more than the agency had received in the prior four years combined. Then a study in England revealed that all-metal hips were failing at nearly three times the rate of hips made from metal-and-plastic components, which can last 15 years or more.
If you or a loved one have had a problem because of your Depuy hip implant, you need help.
