Shoulder Pain Pump

Vanderhyde and Associates Law Firm is helping people and families who are suffering from the condition known as PAGCL (cartilage loss).  If you or a loved one received a pain medication pump or pain ball after shoulder surgery and have developed cartilage loss in the shoulder, you may have a legal claim against the manufacturer.

Several well respected medical journals have established a link between the use of intra articular shoulder pain pumps and a horrible condition called Postarthroscopic Glenohumeral Chondrolysis (PAGCL).  By utilizing these pumps, doctors are able to inject a continuous stream of pain killers into the shoulder to help the patient with pain management.  Unfortunately, the medication is toxic to the shoulder joint and can result in the deterioration of cartilage and ultimately a shoulder replacement.

On November 13, 2009, the FDA announced that it is requiring the drug manufacturers to update their product labels to warn healthcare professionals about this potential serious adverse effect.
