As a Texas resident and effected American I am calling on your support for the Proposed Bill called the Medical Device Patient Safety Act, Sponsored by Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.) and Co-sponsored by U.S. Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-IO) and Herb Kohl (D-WI) would mandate that the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) track recalled medical devices and better manage recalls when problems occur.
Faulty medical devices such as metal-on-metal hip implants require “Strong action to stop defective medical devices". Consumer must have saf*guards implementing protocol for doctors, hospitals and other medical professionals involved. The bill should protect Americans requiring notification to Americans from the FDA and manufacturer about faulty products and recalls more quickly.
In the Bill I would like to see Kickbacks from Manufacturers to Doctors and Hospitals be Illegal and Human testing for medical devices required prior to release for implantation in Americans.
I Suzy Britz age 43, married 25 years, mother of 4 and real estate agent in Flower Mound Texas, would like to express how urgent and critical this proposed legislation is to get passed for Medical Device Patient Safety. After talking at length with my doctor it was my understanding that the metal on metal devices were described to be best for active people. At age 41 on 2/2/2010 I had bi-lateral hip metal-on-metal devices installed. Since the surgery I have experienced infections, muscle pain throughout my body, inflammation, the inability to walk more than half mile distance and a host of other ailments. I have visited multiple doctors and underwent batteries of tests.
Awareness must be made to patients who have the metal-on-metal hips or other implanted devices. Prior to having the hip replacements I did not experience muscle pain and other aliments I face today. It was my understanding that the hip replacments would allow me to lead a more active lifestyle giving more mobility. The current hip implants I have are the S-Rom total hip metal on metal which have not been recalled however I suffer daily with a severe waddling gait and chronic pain.
