US Drug Lawsuits Announces Information For Defective Hernia Mesh Claim

December 11, 2019 – – US Drug Lawsuits – Hernia Mesh Claims is a website that offers information about the hernia mesh lawsuits that are currently ongoing in the United States. The site helps those who may have a claim to determine if their claim is valid and to learn the steps that they need to take in order to file their claim.

Greg McEwen, a spokesperson for the site says, “The first thing that victims have to do is to determine the type of mesh that they had implanted. Knowing the specific type is crucial in filling the right claim.”

McEwen says that the packaging that is included with the mesh will contain all of the information needed to find out the type of mesh that was implanted. This information includes the manufacturer as well as the lot number and specific model of the device.

“Knowing this information will help those who have had mesh implants to be certain if they have been implanted with a faulty mesh,” says McEwen.

He adds that upon learning that one has received a faulty mesh, contacting a qualified hernia mesh attorney would be next on the list. However, there are other things that need to be done prior to contacting an attorney.

“Most providers will give patients information regarding their hernia mesh,” says McEwen. “Once this information has been gained, the patient will need to find their specific mesh to determine if it is one that is the focus of various lawsuits.”

There are currently a wide number of hernia mesh devices that are considered to be faulty and these come from a wide number of manufacturers. Hernia mesh patches that were manufactured from natural materials, such as those produced from pig or human cadaver, are not currently included in this list. Synthetic materials seem to be causing the gist of the problem and while some of these synthetic materials are safe, there are many that are not.

McEwen says that once the patient has determined whether or not their mesh is included in the list of faulty devices, they may need to speak with their doctor to determine is revision surgery is needed. These faulty mesh devices can roll up, migrate to other areas of the body and even puncture from the inside. In these cases, revision surgery is needed in order to correct the problem by removing the mesh and replacing it with a safer product.

McEwen reiterates that once one has determined that their mesh is causing issues, it is time to talk with a qualified attorney. He adds that they fully recommend doing some research before simply hiring an attorney and states that not every attorney who claims to deal with mesh lawsuits actually have experience in these cases.

“In order to find a qualified attorney, we fully encourage people to spend some time researching every attorney in their area,” says McEwen. “It is imperative that the patient choose an attorney who has experience, and positive experience is a must.”

McEwen adds that time is of the essence in these cases, particularly when dealing with something like a faulty mesh. He says that anyone who feels that they have been implanted with one of the mesh devices on the list of faulty products should read through the site to learn more about what needs to be done and in what particular timeline.

Those who are interested in learning more or those who would like a full list of the faulty mesh devices can visit the US Drug Lawsuit site online to learn more.
