systems can cause catastrophic injuries and impairment.
These failed back surgery cases can be caused by defective spinal-devices
or medical negligence, and can take significant resources to
investigate and file a lawsuit. When investigating
these potential failed back surgery lawsuits it is important
to know what implant was used as well as to obtain
medical records of the surgery.
If you or a
family member have
been the victim of a failed spinal cord surgery including a
defective neurostimulation implant, please feel free to
submit an
inquiry or
send an e-mail to Texas
final spinal cord surgery and defective implantable
neurostimulation lawyer Jason Coomer.

Implantable
Neurostimulation System Lawsuits and
Failed Spinal Cord, Neck, & Back Surgery Lawsuits
Implantable
Neurostimulation Systems have been used for a variety of
types of chronic back pain situations including heriniated
disks, postlaminectomy paid, Complex Reginal Pay Syndrome,
unsuccessful disk surgery, Degenerative Disk Disease, and
Failed Back Syndrome. In fact, implantable
neurostimulation systems and other spinal-devices are a huge
business for the medical implant device industry including
Medtronic, a leader in medical implantable devices.
Medtronic’s spinal-devices unit has about $3 billion in
annual revenue from selling spinal devices including the
Medtronic implantable neurostimulation system. With
this success, several other companies are developing similar
implantable neurostimulation systems.
The Medtronic implantable
neurostimulation system is indicated for spinal cord
stimulation (SCS) as an aid in the management of chronic,
intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs—including
unilateral or bilateral pain associated with several
different conditions. Unfortunately, there are
several claims that the implantable neurostimulation system
has some defects that can cause serious health problems.
Texas Lawyer Failed Spinal Cord Surgery
Lawyer Jason Coomer works with
other failed back surgery lawyers across the nation in reviewing and handling
potential defective implantable neurostimulation systems.
In reviewing these cases, the failed back surgery lawyers
have to determine if the implantable neurostimulation system
was properly implanted by the spinal surgeon that implanted
the spinal device as well as if the spinal device has some
type of defect such as loose leads.
In reviewing
a potential failed spinal surgery medical negligence
lawsuits and failed implantable neurostimulation system
lawsuits, it is extremely helpful to know what type
of implantable neurostimulation system was implanted, when the implantation
occurred, and when the product malfunction occurred.
It is also helpful to be able to review the medical records
of the surgery.

neurostimulation system lawsuits or failed medical
negligence lawsuits, feel free

Patients with
Serious Back Injuries Including Severed Spinal Cords,
Crushed Discs, Bulged Discs, and Herniated Discs when
Seeking Pain Relief can sometimes Fall Victim to Defective
Products, Negligent Health Care, and "For Profit" Medical
Professionals Seeking to Increase Profits
The human spinal cord is
basically a bundle of nerves which is surrounded by 33 bones
or vertebrae. Located between each vertebrae is a
spinal disc which is a liquid filled disc shaped pouch.
These discs are stacked on top of one another and act as
shock absorbers allowing the spine to flex, bend, and twist.
When functioning properly, the vertebrae and discs protect
the spinal cord allow nerve impulses to travel from and
to the brain to other parts of the body. This allows
us to experience sensations, move our bodies, and control
many bodily functions.
Problems arise when the
vertebrae, discs, or spinal cord are injured. Broken
vertebrae can damage and impinge on discs or the spinal cord
causing extreme pain, numbness, and loss of control of
bodily functions. Back injuries can occur through
traumatic events that result in paralysis. Depending
where and how severe the injury is will determine what type
and how severe the paralysis is.
The human body has remarkable
healing potential. Combining determination, proper
medical attention, knowledge about an injury, and focus on
the healing process can greatly help most injuries.
Hiring a lawyer to battle the insurance companies and
responsible parties can allow the injured person to focus on the
healing process.
If you or a loved one have
suffered a traumatic spinal cord injury or other serious back injury including a severed spinal
cord, broken vertebrae, crushed discs, herniated discs, or a
bulged discs; the most important thing you can
do is to find a good medical doctor to assess the injury so
you know what you are dealing with and how to best treat the
injury. From physical therapy and steroid injections
to back surgeries (lumbar diskectomy, cervical fusion, and
other lumbar or cervical procedures), there are many
different ways to treat a back injury and it is important to
know what will work best for you.
Unfortunately, there are also medical
clinics, medical implant sales people, and doctors that are
more interested in profit and their bottom line than what is
best for a patient. Some of these medical
professionals carelessly cause painful and difficult
conditions to become much worse by paralyzing patients that
are seeking relief from pain.
Texas Medical Malpractice Lawyers
As a Texas medical malpractice lawyer
Jason Coomer handles
Texas
medical malpractice claims as well as
federal medical malpractice
claims and commonly works with other Federal
Medical Malpractice Lawyers and Medical Malpractice
Lawyers throughout the nation to seek compensation for wrongful death claims and severely injured patients
that have been injured through medical
mistakes and medical carelessness.
To have a successful claim, you have to
have a doctor willing to testify that medical malpractice occurred
and the negligence resulted in damages. This medical negligence has to be
more than just a bad result or judgment call, it has to
deviate from the standard of care in the medical community.
As a Texas medical malpractice lawyer, Jason Coomer works with other
professionals to review and handle medical malpractice claims.
Causes of Texas Medical Malpractice Lawsuits
Unfortunately, medical mistakes happen
when doctors and nurses get too busy, are understaffed,
under the influence of drugs, or are just not paying
attention. As medical budgets go down and healing
people becomes more of a "for profit" business, cost cutting
measures are causing more medical mistakes. Overworked
surgeons,
doctors, residents, and nurses are much more likely to make
mistakes than well rested health care professionals.
Medical mistakes also happen more often
when no one is watching. It is extremely important
when you are in the hospital to have someone that is with
you and watching out for your well being. This is
especially true if you have an allergy to certain types of
medicines. Communication with your health care
professionals is also important and can greatly limit
medical mistakes.
Further complicated procedures such as
spinal cord surgery require extremely competent surgeons
that are on the top of their game to successfully complete.
A patient needs to be extremely careful when having spinal
cord surgery to make sure that they have a good surgeon and
everyone understands the risks of the procedure. In
some cases, even the best surgeons that do everything
correctly will have bad results and the spinal cord surgery
will fail. However, at other times a defective
product, a "for profit" surgeon or clinic, or a careless
surgeon can cause a failed spinal cord surgery that will
paralyze a patient for life.
If you feel you or need a Texas failed
spinal cord surgery medical
malpractice lawyer because you or a loved one has been seriously injured
by medical negligence or someone close to you has died as a
result of medical negligence, it is important to investigate the
claim and make sure that it does not happen again.
Communication Prevents Many Medical Mistakes
Texas has several hospitals that
typically provide quality medical care, but sometimes
mistakes are made. It is always a good idea to have
someone that you trust look out when you are in
the hospital. This person can communicate important
information regarding your condition and watch out for you
when you are in the hospital. It is important to make
sure that you or your medical advocate communicate with
health care professionals to limit the
mistakes that are made.
However, even with proper communication medical mistakes
are made. If a mistake is made, it
is important to report the mistake and if the mistake causes
serious injury or death it is important to investigate a
potential medical malpractice lawsuit. This is because
medical mistakes that no one knows about will not be noticed
and will not result in future better medical care.
Medical mistakes that are reported will help other patients
and are an essential part of the feedback needed to improve
our health care delivery system.
