Key Information On Medical Device Injury
It’s important if you believe you or a loved one have been injured by a medical device. As in other product liability cases, you want to make sure that you preserve the evidence. Often times the laboratory at a hospital during perhaps a revision surgery and a hip surgery, when a defective hip is removed and a new one is put in, it’s important that that evidence be preserved. A lot of times it takes an attorney or a least a loved one to make sure that gets coordinated through the hospital’s laboratory so that evidence can be preserved. As in other cases, not only is it important to preserve the evidence that will become relevant to prove the product is defective later, but it’s important that the injuries are documented. That’s photographs, video documenting of the injuries that a person may be going through, which obviously they will heal over time. If that’s not documented in the beginning, that’s obviously crucial evidence that’s lost.
