0:10 Product Liability Vs Device Liability

People sometimes ask, What’s the difference between product liability, medical product liability, defective device liability, and medical device liability. 

0:26 Included In Medical Product Liability

Medical devices fall under medical products. So medical product liability includes medical devices, but it also includes medicines. The product when I say medicines includes medicine, includes blood products, it includes plasma and red blood cells, and things like that. All things that are not naturally part of the human body, that are used to basically heal people are deemed to be medical products. 

It’s really the same theory of liability with medical devices, but it’s more expansive in terms of what’s included, so that’s the difference.

Once again, if any of you all believe that you are a victim of medical product liability, if you think that you have gotten some defect, it’s a medicine that was defective or basically we’re giving medicine that you shouldn’t have been given, the pharmacy gave you the wrong type, any of these circumstances, please reach out to LawMD, and we’ll be more than happy to answer your questions.
