Guidant Defibrillator Patients Urged to Register For Information Updates

Law Firm Provides Free Information and Updates To Defective Guidant Defibrillator Patients

(PRWEB) July 21, 2005 -- Concerned patients with recalled Guidant defibrillators have urgently been seeking information on the recent defibrillator recall in order to determine how they may be effected and what action they should take to protect their rights. Guidant has recalled nearly 50,000 of its cardiac defibrillators because of defects that may cause the product to short-circuit thereby leading to serious injury and death, said lawyers with NationwideJustice.com.

Patients are concerned that their Guidant defibrillators could be defective and malfunction but they are reporting difficulty in getting information and answers to their questions about the defective defibrillators.

Doctors offices have had difficulty responding to the volume of inquiries and patients have been left to try to find out how they may be affected by searching the internet and reading news stories. The Johnson Law Firm is representing clients nationwide who have defective guidant defibrillators and is keeping all affected patients who register at http://www.nationwidejustice.com/defib_recall/ up to date with the latest news via email.

Patients can now be kept up to date with email alerts on the defective Guidant defibrillators by registering for a free case evaluation and supplying their email address at http://www.nationwidejustice.com/defib_recall/. The Johnson Law Firm can be contacted at toll free 1-866-374-0338

It has been reported that approximately 38,000 Guidant defibrillators have been implanted in patients in the United States. The following is a list of the defective Guidant implant models:

 
  • Prizm 2 DR
  • Contak Renewal
  • Contak Renewal 2
  • Ventak Prizm AVT
  • Vitality AVT
  • Renewal 3 AVT
  • Renewal 4 AVT ICDs

Patients implanted with a Guidant defibrillator or
pacemaker should immediately register for free Guidant Defibrillator News update service via email by contacting The Johnson Law Firm for a free claim evaluation at http://nationwidejustice.com/defib_recall/ or by calling toll free 1-866-374-0338.
