An Implantable Catheter, such as the Bard PowerPort and Port-a-Cath, is inserted under the skin of the chest to allow easy access to the bloodstream for medication, nutrition, or blood transfusion. However, some patients have reported serious injuries from the device, including but not limited to:

DEVICE FRACTURE AND MIGRATION: The catheter may crack or break, causing pieces of it to travel through the bloodstream and potentially cause organ damage or perforation. Device fracturing usually requires surgery to remove the broken pieces, repair the damage, and remove the defective device.

INFECTION: The port or the catheter may become infected. The catheter is coated with a mixture of barium sulfate that breaks down upon contact with your bloodstream, degrading the catheter and harboring bacteria. This can cause fever, chills, redness, swelling, pain, or pus around the port site. In severe cases, the infection may spread to other parts of the body. Infection often requires antibiotic treatment and removal of the defective device.

These injuries can cause pain, disability, or even loss of life. We can help you hold the manufacturer accountable for its negligence and work to create positive change in the industry that may prevent other patients from being harmed in the future.      

The manufacturer of the Bard Power Port, C.R. Bard, Inc., has been accused of selling a defective product and failing to warn patients and doctors of the potential risks. Lawsuits have been filed against the company alleging that it knew or should have known of the dangers of its device and that it concealed or downplayed the evidence of harm.
