Late last year, DePuy successfully moved the federal Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) to consolidate all these lawsuits into one case before federal District Court Judge David Katz of the Northern District of Ohio in Toledo. After this, things started moving efficiently even though there was a slight delay on the scheduled status conference.
A lot of people believe that it is too much to call the DePuy situation a medical disaster. Here is what a medical expert, Dr. Norman Joyce has to say, “It’s the biggest disaster in the history of orthopedics. To think here we are in the 21st century, in 2011, that we have such major failures. This has major implications around the world.”
In the fall of 2010, a recall was issued for the DePuy ASR hip replacement system, shaking the public’s faith in DePuy, a company that has become a dominant figure in producing medical devices. When the recall was first implemented, the failure rate of the ASR system was reported to be 12-13% among those receiving the device.
