At this juncture several lawsuits have been filed against the Bair Hugger manufacturer. Two of the plaintiffs allege they developed MRSA after a Bair Hugger forced-air warming blanket was used during their joint surgery. Another two suffered a limb amputation because of an alleged deep joint infection associated with the Bair Hugger. Those suffering injury from a Bair Hugger forced-air warming blanket should speak to a knowledgeable Bair Hugger product liability attorney to determine the best way to proceed.
