Every spinal cord stimulator inquiry gets a personal review — and an honest answer either way, free and without obligation.

Claims target the device manufacturers — not your doctor. Some matters may be referred to other lawyers. No settlement has been reached, and most cases are in their earliest stages; every case must be proven on its own facts. Attorney Advertising.

Abbott Infinity patients reporting shocks, lead migration, battery failures, or revision surgery may qualify for the Abbott spinal cord stimulator litigation. Infinity 5 and 7 systems are included in Abbott’s 2023 Class I recall for MRI-mode lockup. Plaintiffs also allege rapid lead migration and shocks in Infinity systems, and that Abbott reps programmed Infinity devices without physician supervision.

Reported problems in this system

  • Painful shocks, jolts, and overstimulation
  • lead migration or fracture requiring reoperation
  • battery and charging failures
  • MRI-mode lockout (2023 Class I recall)
  • loss of pain relief after a successful trial
  • infection and battery-site complications. (Counts from FDA’s MAUDE database; reports are not verified causation.)

Is this your device?

Check your patient ID card — it lists the model. No card? Your charger or phone app identifies it, and your operative report names it; we obtain that for you. This model appears in Abbott’s Class I recall — if you received the recall letter, keep it.

What matters most in Abbott Infinity cases

Infinity patients who lost stimulation after an MRI — even once — should document that event; it is the recall defect in action.

Do you qualify?

  • ✓ Revision, replacement, or removal surgery
  • ✓ Shocks or burns
  • ✓ Migration on imaging
  • ✓ Infection
  • ✓ Neurological symptoms

“It just stopped working”? Read our honest triage before deciding you don’t qualify — most patients have more than they think.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a Abbott Infinity lawsuit?
Abbott Infinity devices are part of the litigation against Abbott. Individual qualification depends on your injuries and dates — the review is free.
Is the Abbott Infinity recalled?
Yes — this model is included in Abbott’s 2023 Class I recall for MRI-mode lockup (~155,000 U.S. devices). Recall status plus device failure strengthens a claim.
What if I’m not sure this is my model?
The ID card, charger, app, or operative report answers it — we do this for you at no charge.

What Abbott litigation does the Infinity fall under?

The Abbott Infinity is among the spinal cord stimulator models named in active lawsuits against Abbott. These cases remain in early stages, with no settlement reached, and each Infinity claim must still be proven on its own individual facts before any recovery.

Do I need documents to start an Infinity claim?

No, you do not need any documents to start. No records are needed for the free case review.

What does the FDA adverse event record show for the Abbott Infinity SCS?

FDA adverse event reports for the Abbott Infinity SCS total just 52, a small number, with injury the leading event type at 28 reports.

REPORTS IN 2025

The Abbott Infinity generator shows a small number of SCS-coded FDA adverse event reports, 52 total, with 28 classified as injury and 23 as malfunction. Reporting was concentrated early, with 15 reports in 2019 falling to single digits by 2022 and none logged in 2024, 2025, or 2026. The leading product problem is a premature elective replacement indicator, cited in 28 reports, followed by 7 reports with no identified device or use problem and 6 battery problem reports. This remains a small dataset next to other Abbott SCS platforms, and attorneys reviewing spinal cord stimulator claims use these reports as investigative leads, not proof of defect.
