Intravenous therapy is a vital part of treatment, and an absolute necessity when it comes to medical procedures such as blood draws and chemotherapy. However, the process itself can be messy, time-consuming, and painful to the patient as a needle prick must be performed anytime the process must be carried out. However, recent advances in medicine have made it possible for healthcare professionals to implant an intravenous port that can self-seal and be accessed at any time by opening the port and administering medication, nutrition, or drawing blood. Bard PowerPort has been the go-to device when it comes to implantable vena cava devices owing to its ease of use as well as its cost. That said, thousands of patients have come forward alleging that the device, due to defective components or poor design, has caused them significant health issues and complications, some of which have led to a worsening of their condition, the need for surgery to remove device parts which broke off into the body and traveled to other areas of the body, and even blood clots (embolisms), strokes, and heart attacks. Thanks to the keen eyes of health watchdogs, patients all around the country have been notified of the deleterious effects of this device and urged to join an ongoing efficient form of class action lawsuit known as multidistrict litigation, meant to hear cases in tandem but award every injured individual appropriately according to the harm they suffered. If you were injured by a Bard PowerPort device, our law firm is ready to help you become part of the plaintiffs in this one-of-a-kind class action lawsuit, and it only takes one call to do so.

Bard PowerPort Lawsuits in 2024 – Latest News

As of 25th of October 2024, plaintiffs and Bard’s defense lawyers are squaring up and going back and forth regarding scheduling order deadlines for the MDL. With a case of this magnitude, the more time that is proffered to discovery and other legal procedures, the better, as this will help place more weight on claims helping to boost their odds of financial recovery or compensation. However, Bard’s attorneys do not want the deadlines to be extended so they can cement their rebuttals and stem the financial bleeding that may occur if these cases gain traction and more plaintiffs come on board.

Bard PowerPort Attorneys Refuse to Hand Over Documents

Earlier in the month, defendants were on record trying to redact documents alleging that the information in these documents was privileged and could only be provided on a need-to-know basis. This level of secrecy could only be construed to be an admission of guilt as individuals or entities that were purportedly innocent would have no problem providing said information and documentation.

Bard PowerPort Injury Lawsuits by the Numbers

To date, there have been close to 600 lawsuits added to the multidistrict litigation or MDL, with the vast majority of these suits being added over the last two months. It is thus logical to expect that the number of lawsuits could potentially balloon to include over 1000 individuals by January 2025.

Bard PowerPort cases are also expected to be part of Bellwether trials in late 2025 and 2026, which are test trials, so to speak, to determine the viability of the other cases as well as to gauge the settlement amounts clients could potentially collect. Due to the complexity of these cases, these Bellwether trials may take a while to transpire, and should the defendants start to see that they may potentially lose should a trial transpire, they may concede and propose a mass payout to settle the lawsuits once and for all.
