Default Women who use the vaginal mesh are due £20,000 Compensation

This was debated Live
on Ch5HD 1st show
during their Papers and Online Review.


[The government is being told to
urgently set up a financial package
to help patients damaged by
epilepsy drug valproate and vaginal mesh.

Calculations for the cost of the
package amount to half a
billion pounds - just for the initial payments,
according to a report by the
Patient Safety Commissioner for England,
Dr Henrietta Hughes.

Previously, the government rejected
calls for such a scheme,
but Dr Hughes's report says that
position "is unsustainable" and
"is causing immense anxiety
for harmed patients".
Based on the needs identified by
patients in a survey,
valproate victims would need an
initial payment of £100,000 per patient,
and vaginal mesh
victims would need £20,000.]

[vaginal mesh implant,
is a net-like surgical tool that is used to
treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP)
and stress urinary incontinence (SUI)
among female patients.

The surgical mesh is placed transvaginal
to reconstruct weakened pelvic muscle
walls and to support the urethra or bladder.]

…it sounds barbaric but was a simple procedure so one that was used…?…even though it’s always appeared to have been controversial and there have been serious complications connected to its use…£20,000 seems like a very small amount of compensation for what many women seem to have suffered…/…horrendous ….

I agree, my sister had this procedure 5 years ago and she's been in agony ever since. They have told her they can't remove it but could snip what they could see. She agreed and came out of hospital in a wheelchair unable to walk. She hasn't been able to work since.

They don't only use this mesh vaginaly. They use it for bowl problems and reconstruction for breast cancer patients.

Surely there's a better way than that? It sounds to me like it makes things worse.

…I can’t imagine how helpless and terrifying that all has been for her, DemRed…it really doesn’t feel at all an appropriate compensation for victims and families and especially considering the loss of income as you say …and any ongoing medical care also…I’m so sorry for everything she’s gone through and I wish her well for the future…

The issue seems to be that the surrounding tissue heals over/around the mesh which then digs in, but also is so embedded that it can't be removed without cutting away a tonne of healthy tissue. Often when they do try to remove it, it leaves behind fragments that can end up being even more painful.

There are procedures (mostly in the US) that can remove it more effectively but they're private treatment, and very expensive.

But seriously I don't think that I'd want to have a C-section.
