Nexxt Spine is a company that designs and manufactures medical devices – specifically spinal implants and instruments that are used for spinal procedures. Like with all medical devices, these implants/instruments are expected to be free of any flaws or defects that could ultimately lead to failure of the medical device and harm to patients.

You could have the right to file a medical device product liability lawsuit. Based on the details surrounding the situation, you could also have the right to file a medical malpractice claim; that is, if your doctor knowingly used a defective product.

Medical Devices can be Defective and Fail
In 2021, 36% of all medical device failures reported to the FDA were associated with the materials used during the manufacturing process. When product manufacturers use materials that are too weak or not compatible with other materials used in the product, the product can crack, break, or detach, resulting in the medical device failing. Other potential issues can include defective design (resulting in the device not working as it should) as well as defective labeling (resulting in the device being installed or used incorrectly). Because the well-being of patients is on the line, it is essential that all medical devices are always free of any defects.
Do I Have the Right to File a Lawsuit?
Yes – you could have the right to file a lawsuit. You could have the right to file a defective Nexxt Spine product lawsuit for the harm that you or a member of your family suffered. Your right to sue will be based on the concept of product liability, which states that all product manufacturers – including those who manufacture medical products – have the duty to ensure that all their products are free of any defects that could cause ultimately cause harm. When these product manufacturers fail to identify and address the defects present in their products, they can be liable for all damages associated with the defective medical device.
Do I have the right to file a medical malpractice claim for the harm suffered? Based on the details surrounding the incident, you could have the right to file a medical malpractice claim. More specifically, if the medical team was aware that there was a recall on the Nexxt Spine products but still used the medical device, then you might have a case for medical malpractice.
In some cases, claimants may have the right to pursue both a product liability claim and a medical malpractice claim.

The Statute of Limitations – How Long Do I Have to Sue?
