Dialysis relies on a chain of interconnected equipment, from the hemodialysis machine itself to the dialyzer, bloodlines, and catheter that carry blood. Because a patient's blood is circulating through this equipment for hours at a time, a defect anywhere in that chain can turn a routine treatment into a medical emergency. We look at which specific component failed and whether that failure traces back to a manufacturing or design problem.
Case EvaluationA single treatment session depends on machines, tubing, filters, and access devices all performing correctly at the same time, and the risks change depending on which part is involved.
FDA action against dialysis equipment has been especially active across 2025 and 2026, spanning machines, catheters, and the tubing that physically connects a patient to the treatment.
Some of these signs appear during the session itself, while others develop in the hours after treatment ends.
A dialysis equipment failure can require far more medical intervention than the treatment it interrupted.
Families who lose a loved one connected to a dialysis equipment failure may also have a wrongful death claim covering funeral and related expenses.
Dialysis treatment involves several pieces of equipment working together, so the first task in any case is narrowing down which specific component, model, and lot actually failed. We work through your treatment center's records to identify that equipment and determine how its recall or defect history lines up with what happened to you.
There is no upfront cost to you, and our fee only comes out of what we recover on your behalf. If a dialysis session left you injured, hospitalized, or dealing with an infection you did not expect, reach out and share your story with us so we can look into what your treatment center used that day.
