Bard PowerPort Catheter (US): Settlement Amounts
BellwetherReported amounts & case results
Individual case values in the consolidated D. Ariz. action vary widely by injury type (migration, embolism, infection) and stage. Bellwether outcomes reported so far: defense verdict on decided claims (Cook, May 2026) and $40 million plaintiff verdict (Divelbliss, Sep 4, 2026, per Law.com); no global settlement is on the public record. No amount can be promised.
Reported amounts are what sources say — not a promise. Individual results depend on injuries, jurisdiction, and the stage of the case. This is not legal advice.
What affects case value
- Injury severity — the single largest driver across mass torts.
- Jurisdiction — national/state/provincial law (e.g., discovery rules, statute of limitations) can change outcomes.
- Case stage — early filings and post-bellwether values differ.
- Documentation — medical records and the exposure timeline.
