The Bleeding Edge

The Bleeding Edge is a thought-provoking documentary that delves into the fast-growing medical device industry and its potentially devastating consequences for patients. With a focus on the Bayer's permanent birth control device Essure, the film exposes how lax regulations, corporate cover-ups, and profit-driven incentives can put patients' lives at risk. Through emotionally powerful stories, the documentary explores how lifesaving technologies may actually be killing us, and raises important questions about the FDA's 510(k) process and the impact of medical devices on patients' lives. Ultimately, The Bleeding Edge demands accountability from the industry and encourages patients to take a closer look at the devices that are meant to save their lives.
