› $150,000,000 verdict in personal injury case
Medtronic, Inc., the maker of the faulty Sprint Fidelis Defibrillator Lead and several other defective medical devices, will try to convince the US Supreme Court that people injured by dangerous medical devices and drugs should not be allowed to sue manufacturers if those products have been approved by the Food & Drug Administration (FDA).
More lawsuits have been filed against Medtronic related to its defective Sprint Fidelis leads. Two Kansas residents have filed class action lawsuits alleging that Medtronic was negligent in the design of its Sprint Fidelis Leads. Both lawsuits also allege that Medtronic failed to warn patients about the possible defects in a timely manner.
Two area residents have filed federal class-action lawsuits over malfunctions they said could occur in Medtronic Inc. heart defibrillators implanted in more than a quarter-million patients.
Patients who have been implanted with [Medtronic Sprint Fidelis Leads] are understandably concerned after learning that the leads have been linked to five fatalities. Some patients have undergone risky surgeries in order to have the leads removed after they malfunctioned. Meanwhile, [lawsuits] have been filed on behalf of patients who were injured by fractured leads.
