There’s a few ways in which you may be able to make a pelvic mesh compensation case. Depending on the nature of your individual case may depend on how we pursue the claim.
Pelvic mesh compensation for surgical errors
You can claim pelvic mesh compensation for surgical errors. If we can show that the surgeon did not have the adequate skills necessary for such a complex procedure, you may have a case.
It’s in the recognised guidelines that only surgeons with the particular skillset required should undertake pelvic mesh procedures. The procedures should be cleared with the higher management in the Trust, and clear plans should be in place for the care of the patient.
Ultimately, if the procedure has failed and it’s because of the skill or technique of the surgeon, you may be able to claim pelvic mesh compensation.
Pelvic mesh compensation for lack of care and advice
Another common form of pelvic mesh compensation is from inadequate care or advice.
Women must be given all the knowledge they need to be able to make an informed decision about whether to have an implant fitted or not. There are alternatives, and these should be explored as well.
One of the things that victims of pelvic mesh complications have said so much is about the fact that they had no idea how badly they could be affected if things went wrong. Some women are unable to walk or work ever again. The damage can be irreparable.
Pelvic mesh compensation for defects with the device
There’s a great deal of debate over whether the implants themselves are safe or not. There are a number of litigations going on around the world seeking pelvic mesh compensation against the manufacturers.
In the UK, the evidence to hold manufacturers at fault hasn’t been good. In America, recent court papers suggested that the product makers put profits before people in spite of potential dangers of the implants.
