60 Minutes Story on Trasylol Kidney Failures and Heart Attacks

On Sunday, February 17, 2008, the CBS news show 60 Minutes, featured a story concerning the serious complications from Bayer's heart surgery drug called Trasylol. According to the 2006 study by medical researcher Dr. Dennis Mangano, the most serious and common side effects associated with Trasylol were increased incidents of renal and kidney failure and heart attacks. His observational study included over 5000 patients in 17 countries. When asked about his Trasylol study, Dr. Mangano told 60 Minutes' that, "It showed an important association between Trasylol use and kidney failure requiring dialysis and it showed a trend towards increased death in hospitals in these patients."

The 60 minutes story also profiled the Trasylol patient Joe Randone. He went in for heart valve replacement surgery at the age of 52. Following surgery where Trasylol was put in Mr. Randone's IV, he suffered two heart attacks and kidney failure. In August 2006 Mr. Randone died from complications. The family has filed a Trasylol lawsuit against Bayer. Dr. Mangano estimated that 1000 lives per month could have been saved if the drug had been taken off the market after his Trasylol study was published.
