DaVita’s Legal Troubles Extend Beyond GranuFlo Side Effects Posted on December 17, 2013 by Andrew Findley a href=”http://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/articles/DaVita-Granuflo-Class-Action-lawsuit/davita-healthcare-clinics-granuflo-side-effects-7-19350.html#.UrBmTz9iCwE”>Lawyersandsettlements.com; December 15, 2013 Lowville, NY: The empire that is DaVita Healthcare Clinics is about to get a bit larger with the launch of a new dialysis center at Lewis County General Hospital (LCGH) in Lowville, New York. Approved in September 2011, DaVita is hoping to open in March of next year. The hospital, according to the Watertown Daily Times (11/18/13), will host the clinic but will not be responsible for it, although the hospital will benefit from having a dialysis facility on site, together with ancillary service such as lab tests. Still, there are those who are not happy about DaVita’s legal troubles, and suggest the original approval may not have happened or may not have gone so smoothly, had more people been aware of the cases. It should be noted that as with any lawsuit, innocence is presumed until guilt is proven in court. DaVita has had its share of trouble inherent with GranuFlo side effects. GranuFlo, and its close cousin NaturaLyte, are agents used in the process of dialysis. Manufactured by a competing dialysis company that also operates a collection of dialysis centers, GranuFlo and NaturaLyte were found to be associated with dosing errors that could elevate a patient’s bicarbonate levels, posing a significant hazard and risking GranuFlo cardiac arrest.
