The Bard PowerPort is an implanted vascular access device commonly used to deliver chemotherapy medications, fluids and blood draws for patients requiring long term treatment. Patients trust that these devices are safe to remain inside their bodies for extended periods. However reports have linked Bard PowerPort devices to serious complications caused by material degradation and device failure.
Instead of functioning as intended some PowerPort devices have fractured, cracked or degraded inside the body leading to severe injuries and the need for emergency medical intervention.
Bard PowerPort devices have been associated with serious and sometimes life threatening complications including:
Many patients are unaware that the device has failed until they experience sudden complications requiring hospitalization or invasive corrective procedures.
Lawsuits allege that Bard PowerPort devices were defectively designed and manufactured using materials that were prone to degradation once implanted in the body. Claims also assert that manufacturers failed to adequately warn physicians and patients about the risks of fracture migration and long term device failure.
Patients injured by Bard PowerPort devices often face additional surgeries extended medical care and long term health consequences that could have been avoided with safer design and proper warnings.
