Injured by a Bard® PowerPort™ Catheter Implant?
You may be entitled to a cash settlement for your injuries.
Who May Qualify for a Bard PowerPort Settlement?
If you had a Bard catheter device implanted and experienced complications, you may qualify. Allegedly, Bard’s implanted catheter devices can easily move around, come loose after placement, and break apart into jagged pieces. These shards can then travel through your body, leading to serious internal injuries, bleeding, punctured organs, and even death. Plaintiffs claim the manufacturer, C.R. Bard, failed to warn patients about these potentially life-threatening injury risks.
You may qualify for compensation if you experienced any of the following at least 60 days after device implantation:
- Blood clots
- Infections that require hospitalization (i.e., sepsis, septic shock)
- Hemorrhaging or bleeding
- Blood vessel, organ, or tissue perforation injuries
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)
- Pulmonary embolism
- Stroke
- Death
