Device-related complications
Device-related complications are issues that can occur with medical devices such as implants, catheters, or prostheses. These problems may include infections at the device site, movement or displacement of the device, mechanical failure like breaking or malfunctioning, or rejection by the body. Such complications can cause discomfort, require additional treatment or surgery, and may impact the overall success of the medical intervention. Proper placement, monitoring, and follow-up care help reduce the risk of these issues.
