(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 07, 2007 ) Denver, CO - LegalView, the number one source for everything legal on the Internet, has launched a new legal practice area to help those suffering from the St. Jude Riata Defibrillator Lead, which recently had wire malfunctions causing several patients to suffer from perforation of their hearts by the defibrillator lead. A report that was recently released in the medical journal Pace found four cases, where the Riata defibrillator system malfunctioned, causing the lead wire to detach and penetrate the wall of the heart.


LegalView.com understands that a perforated heart is a serious condition, which is why LegalView has launched the St. Jude Riata Defibrillator Lead legal practice area to help those enduring trauma from this unfortunate malfunction. Users will be able to find the latest and most up-to-date information on the St. Jude Riata Defibrillator Lead as well as get help finding a Riata Defibrillator Lead attorney.


The recently released report also found that in one patient, the St. Jude Riata Defibrillator Lead wire almost protruded through the patient's skin. The defibrillator is used in patients suffering from heart disease and is implanted in case of cardiac arrest. The defibrillator is attached to the heart and when it recognizes abnormal heart rhythms, it will release an electric shock to the heart. But because of the malfunction, a number of patients will likely require the device to be surgically removed, in which case, patients should be advised to contact an experienced Riata Defibrillator Lead law Attorney for counsel on dealing with this complex medical and legal issue.
