August 13, 2015 - The nationwide law firm of Bernstein Liebhard LLP is now evaluating Cook Beacon Tip Catheter lawsuits (http://www.catheterrecallcenter.com/) on behalf of individuals who may have been harmed by malfunctioning coronary angiograph catheters that were recently recalled by Cook Medical, Inc. According to a recall notice posted on the U.S. Food & Drug Administration's (FDA) website on August 3rd, the worldwide recall involves more than 95,000 catheters sold under the following brand names:"The FDA has deemed this a Class I recall, which indicates that the affected Cook Beacon Tip Catheters may cause serious injury and even death. In light of the devastating health consequences potentially associated with these devices, our attorneys thought it prudent to take steps to provide affected patients and their families with important information about their legal rights," says Sandy A. Liebhard, a partner at Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationwide law firm representing victims of defective drugs and medical devices. The Firm has launched a new website to provide the public with the most up-to-date information regarding the Cook Beacon Tip Catheter recall, and is now providing free, no-obligation legal reviews to those who may have been harmed by one of these coronary angiograph catheters.
Cook Beacon Tip Angiograph Catheter Recall
Cook Beacon Tip Angiograph Catheters are used to inject contrast dye into the blood vessels of the heart. This allows doctors to obtain detailed x-rays so that they may determine how well blood is flowing within the heart. According to the American Heart Association, coronary angiograph procedures are generally associated with a low rate of complications.
According to the FDA, the devices included in the Cook Beacon Tip Catheter recall may be vulnerable to splitting or separating at the tip. Tip splitting can result in loss of device function, while separation may occlude blood flow to end organs and require medical intervention to retrieve the separated section. Cook Medical has received 26 reports of tip splitting or separation related to these products, 14 of which resulted in adverse events. The FDA requires medical device manufacturers to report adverse events related to their products if they are considered serious, including those that result in hospitalization, permanent damage or disability, a need for medical intervention, or death.
Patients who experienced complications related to a malfunctioning Cook Beacon Tip Catheter may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering and other damages.
