The study, ordered by the Food and Drug Admin, looked at four medical devices, all supposed to be closely monitored and used only for research or in grave emergency. At one hospital alone, doctors reported using one device in 37 surgeries but actually implanted it in 258 patients. An expert from the Assn of Trial Lawyers of America says hospitals and others are profiteering.Citation DetailsTitle: Medical devices implanted without patients' consent.
