Shoulder Pain Pump — How an Attorney Can Help

A shoulder pain pump lawsuit is a legal option for people who have suffered injuries as a result of using a shoulder pain pump device. Shoulder pain pump attorneys are injury lawyers who devote much of their practice to helping patients recover compensation for their losses.

Do You Have a Case?

Recent studies have linked the use of post-operative, intra-articular shoulder pain pumps following arthroscopic shoulder surgery to a rare, life-altering condition known as Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis (PAGCL).

If you suffer from any of the following symptoms following the use of a shoulder pain pump device, you may have a case:

• Pain when shoulder is in motion or at rest
• Shoulder stiffness
• Popping or grinding when shoulder is in motion
• Decrease in range of motion
• A loss of strength in the joint

Affected Shoulder Pain Pumps

The devices involved include those manufactured by Stryker Co., DJO Inc., I-Flow Co., BREG Inc. and several others. Most commonly used are:

How an Attorney Can Help

PAGCL is a condition that causes life-long hardships and problems. The makers and manufacturers of such devices have a responsibility to patients and healthcare providers. When a patient is harmed by their product, they should be held accountable and should have to compensate the injured for their losses.

Consult a Lawyer

If you or a loved one has developed cartilage damage or PAGCL following arthroscopic surgery, you should contact an attorney to find out whether you are eligible for compensation for your injuries.
