Even more unbelievable DePuy also blamed their own patients by claiming they were “careless and at fault”! They claimed that the victims of the ASR hip failure were careless and caused damage to themselves.

Who is responsible for this product?

Johnson & Johnson’s (JNJ) orthopedic-device unit is recalling hip replacement parts implanted in about 93,000 people worldwide because of a high rate of repeat surgeries needed, adding a new quality problem for the health-products company.  If you or your loved ones have had a Depuy Hip Replacement please visit your doctor immediately your health may be in danger.

What are they doing about it?

A Johnson & Johnson spokesman said Thursday the company is still evaluating the financial impact of the recall, which does not require patients to have implants removed. Instead, the company’s DePuy Orthopedics subsidiary advised patients with its ASR hip parts to visit their surgeons for evaluation of device performance. It also recommended yearly monitoring and said it plans to cover “reasonable and customary costs” linked to the recall.  If you have had your hip replaced with a Johnson & Johnson Depuy Hip Replacement device it may be defective and you need to seek advice from your physician.

What are the symptoms?

Very few of these hip systems remain on the market, DePuy said, since the company decided to discontinue sales last year due to declining demand and to focus on new products. Problems leading to repeat surgery included loosening parts, infections, fractures, dislocation, sensitivity to metal and pain, the company said.  If you or a loved one have or have had any of these symptoms you may be entitled to compensation, Contact a Depuy Hip Replacement Recall Attorney online or call today 1-866-912-3007  or 304-932-4225.
