There are strict federal regulations regarding the sizing and construction of bed rails that are made for medical purposes. Failure to comply with these standards or defects with the product itself can cause a gap between the mattress and bed rail. Because the bed rails are positioned relatively close to your head, the possibility of asphyxiation is very high if a patient gets stuck between the bed rail and the mattress.

Asphyxiation is a life-threatening condition that can cause a variety or severe health complications, including:

• Loss of consciousness
• Brain damage
• Organ damage / failure

Death is another tragic consequence of asphyxiation, as the body will start to shut if it’s deprived of oxygen for even a few minutes. Loved ones of deceased victims may be entitled to wrongful death compensation, such as funeral expenses, reimbursement for medical bills, pain and suffering, and loss of consortium. Contact our attorneys to learn more about the damages that may be available to you.

Regardless of what type of injury you’ve suffered, please take the following steps to ensure that you are successful in a defective product lawsuit against Nova Medical Products:

• Document your injuries and the accident scene by taking photos or recording video footage.
