Below is an overview of each product as well as the potential side effects and other pertinent information:

• GranuFlo: GranuFlo and NaturaLyte are chemical dialysis products that are used in dialysis machines for the purpose of helping to clean the blood of the patient with kidney malfunctions. The products are designed to prevent dangerous acid buildup in the kidneys. However, recent lawsuits claim that these ingredients may also increase the patient's risk of having cardiac arrest and/or various cardiovascular problems. Serious side effects include: heart attack, cardiopulmonary arrest, cardiovascular death, and stroke. There are currently over 2,000 cases against Fresenius Medical Care Inc. regarding GranuFlo and NaturaLyte, and they have been consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL) in Massachusetts Federal Court under U.S. District Judge Douglas P. Woodlock. The first trial is scheduled for January of 2016 with the following trial set to take place a month later.

• Xarelto: Xarelto was initially approved in 2011 and is one of the most recent blood thinners on the market. The blood thinner is manufactured by Bayer and is marketed by Johnson & Johnson's subsidiary, Janssen Pharmaceuticals. Dangerous side effects include: internal bleeding, intestinal bleeding, rectal bleeding, blood clots, embolism, brain hemorrhaging, and death caused by uncontrolled bleeding. Hundreds of lawsuits have been filed over blood thinners, including Pradaxa and Xarelto, and have been consolidated into multidistrict litigation (MDL).

• Morcellators: Morcellators have been used in different laparoscopic surgeries including hysterectomy and myomectomy procedures as well as laparoscopic spleen and renal surgeries. While the morcellator device provides a less-invasive surgery and quicker recovery time, the following have been listed as potential side effects: spread of malignant tissue, advanced-stage cancerous growths, and metastatic leiomyosarcoma, an aggressive uterine cancer.

Patty Kirby, COO and Head of Client Relations, commented on the company's recent focus, "We are pleased to begin accepting applications and funding requests on cases involving GranuFlo, Xarelto, and Morcellators, along with the rest of our target funding cases for 2015.
