Hip Replacement Claims

All medical and surgical procedures involve a risk of injury, including a hip replacement.

While injury can occur due to negligence on the part of the medical professional performing the hip replacement, there could also be negligence on the part of the manufacturer which could lead to complications or injury.

Medical Negligence 

Medical negligence refers to when a medical professional has performed a procedure in a substandard manner compared to the professional guidelines of their profession. There are certain symptoms which might suggest you unfortunately experienced medical negligence during your hip procedure, such as experiencing excessive pain beyond what is expected for a hip replacement, feeling that the artificial hip parts have shifted or are lose within the body or experiencing an infection in the surgery area. First Personal Injury wants to ensure that you get the compensation you deserve if you have experienced medical negligence. 

Faulty Product Recall

Your injuries resulting from a hip replacement could also be due to the replacement being a faulty product. Symptoms of this, such as pain, could occur long after the initial surgery or they could be brought to your attention by the manufacturer once they realised there was a problem with their product and therefore decided to issue a recall. Some fairly modern examples of hip replacement recalls include the DePuy ASR Acetabular and Resurfacing System recall and the Wright Profemur Z Hip Stem recall. No matter whether your case is an instance of medical negligence or manufacturing/design negligence, First Personal Injury will fight for your case and ensure that you get the compensation you deserve.
