About the Bard Port Catheter Litigation

Bard port catheters are implantable devices used to provide repeated access to a patient’s veins. They are often used for patients requiring long-term intravenous (IV) treatments, like chemotherapy.

While all implantable ports may come with some risks, lawsuits claim there may be design elements specific to Bard PowerPort devices that may increase the likelihood of the device breaking down or migrating.

About the Bard PowerPort Lawsuits

  • There are currently over 3,187 lawsuits pending in the Bard PowerPort multidistrict litigation.
  • In recent lawsuits, some victims allege their devices broke or became dislodged, leading to their injuries.
  • Injuries include sepsis, organ/tissue punctures, infections, pulmonary embolisms, and more.

With our firm on your side, you can rest easy knowing that tremendous experience and knowledge, combined with significant resources and commitment, are hard at work for you.

Our clients know that we are resolute and unwavering in fighting on their behalf. Now let us fight for yours.
