ERCP Scope Lawsuit Loans

ERCP Scope Lawsuits and Uplift Legal Funding

A duodenoscope is a medical tool used to non-invasively examine the small intestine. These scopes were first invented in the late 1960s and are used in over 700,000 ERCP procedures a year. The problem with these scopes was not known until early 2010. Scientists linked the outbreak of a rare and deadly antibiotic-resistant infection to the scopes. There are three main manufacturers of these scopes:

• Olympus America, Inc.
• Hoya Corp.
• Fujifilm Medical Systems USA, Inc.

Adverse Effects of ERCP Scopes and Lawsuit Information

The main problem with ERCP scopes is that they can transmit superbugs. The most common symptoms of superbug infections include:

• Diarrhea
• Rapid pulse
• Bloody urine
• Dizziness
• Chills
• Inflamed wound sites

The first FDA recall was issued in 2014. However, it did not recommend that hospitals discontinue the use of the devices. In January 2016, the government investigation into the 319 reports of infections reached its height. Since the recall, federal courts across the nation have awarded damages of more than $5 million. The key charges being brought against American companies that make ERCP scopes are:

• Selling a product without FDA clearance
• Negligence
• Wrongful death
• Knowingly selling a faulty product
• Making a defective product
• Marketing a defective product
