we are on a mission to make certain every recipient of a DePuy ASR or Pinnacle hip implant gets identified to the best attorneys, so they will be compensated in the event their metal-on-metal hip implant has already failed, or might prematurely fail
(PRWEB) September 14, 2012
The US Drug Watchdog says, "Our ASR DePuy recalled hip, and DePuy metal on metal hip implant initiative is one of our most important recalled medical device initiatives ever-there are nearly 200,000 US citizens involved. Unfortunately, many individuals who received a now recalled DePuy ASR hip implant, or a DePuy Pinnacle hip implant do not want to go through a painful hip replacement surgery, also called revision surgery, or they have not heard about the failure rates, so we are strongly encouraging family members or loved ones of anyone receiving a hip implant between 2002 and 2010 to ask if it was a DePuy ASR hip implant, or a DePuy Pinnacle hip implant-and if the answer is yes have them call us immediately." In the instance of the now recalled DePuy ASR hip implant, these devices were sold as the right hip implant for younger adults who wanted to have an active or athletic lifestyle. In the instance of the recalled DePuy ASR, or DePuy Pinnacle metal on metal hip implants the US Drug Watchdog does not care if the device has failed yet or not. The US Drug Watchdog says, "We know there are about 180,000+ recipients of the now recalled DePuy ASR, and or the Depuy Pinnacle hip implant, and we are on a mission to make certain every recipient gets identified to the best possible attorneys, so they will be compensated in the event their metal-on-metal hip implant has already failed, or might prematurely fail.

The group says, "We want to make certain all DePuy ASR hip implant recipients, and all DePuy Pinnacle hip implant recipients get to attorneys that have the best record in achieving superior results for their clients.
