(PRWEB) January 16, 2013

The US Drug Watchdog says, "We have heard hundreds of accounts of orthopedic surgeons not being very helpful for their patients who received a metal on metal hip implant, and we are now suggesting a simple blood test focused on cobalt, or chromium levels as a much better way to see if a metal on metal hip implant has failed. With nearly 140,000 metal on metal hip implant recipients the DePuy Pinnacle is by far the largest player in the US metal on metal hip implant arena." As a background, according to the New York Times on December 27th 2011, "The wear of metal parts against each other is generating debris that is damaging tissue and, in some cases, crippling patients." The US Drug Watchdog says, "The DePuy Pinnacle hip implant is a metal-on-metal hip implant, and again we are encouraging recipients to get a simple blood test for cobalt, and chromium levels. If the blood test reveals elevated levels of cobalt, or chromium the group will suggest the names of national caliber law firms that have a background in successful representation of medical device failures.
