Approximately one year ago, Advanced Bionics, the US manufacturer of cochlear implants, settled a civil suit brought by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) based on the HiRes90k cochlear implant device. It is expected over 25% of the vendor B HiRes90k devices (implanted in most part through March 2006) will fail. While public relations campaigns may tell you Advanced Bionics settled to “move on,” you have the option to not “move on” until the company addresses the difficulties you faced in life following a failed medical device.
If your HiRes90k failed, and you sustained emotional or physical injuries, lost wages, medical bills, travel expenses, or any other costs, you may be entitled to recovery from the company and possibly the manufacturer or the defective component (a feedthru manufactured by Astro Seal).
If you received the defective cochlear implant recall letter, you may be entitled to relief.

If you or your child has an Advanced Bionics HiRes90k device that was implanted prior to March 2006 (or was implanted with a Clarion II / CII device) and you or your child is experiencing difficulties with the implant or the device has failed, please email me, call me, or complete the form below.
