Baxter International Shareholders Have Opportunity to Lead Securities Fraud Lawsuit
Introduction
Recent developments have highlighted the opportunity for shareholders of Baxter International, Inc. (ticker: BAX) who have experienced financial losses to take legal action against the company. The Law Offices of Frank R. Cruz have announced the potential for affected investors to participate in a securities fraud class-action lawsuit that holds Baxter accountable for significant claims relating to its medical products.
What Does the Lawsuit Involve?
The lawsuit revolves around allegations that, over a span from February 23, 2022, to July 30, 2025, Baxter failed to adequately disclose underlying issues regarding its Novum LVP device. The complaint asserts five key points of misconduct:
1.
Systemic Defects: The Novum LVP experienced numerous systemic defects that led to critical malfunctions such as underinfusion, overinfusion, and at times, complete failure to deliver fluids, potentially endangering patients' lives.
2.
Notification of Malfunctions: Baxter was alerted to multiple incidents involving device malfunctions, including severe injuries and fatalities, yet the magnitude of these issues went unaddressed in official communications.
3.
Inadequate Remedial Actions: Efforts made by Baxter to mitigate these defects through customer alerts were found to be insufficient, and the design flaws persisted causing ongoing serious risks to patients using the device.
4.
Sales Impact: The allegations suggest that due to the existing defects, Baxter was at a heightened risk of being compelled to withdraw Novum LVP devices from circulation and halt sales entirely.
5.
Misleading Statements: Throughout this period, claims made by Baxter regarding its business health and future prospects were misleading and lacked a factual basis, which questions the integrity of the company's communication to its investors.
