  • Title: Advertising and promotion of medical devices.
    Author: Portnoy S.
    Journal: J Health Law; 2006; 39(2):265-82. PubMed ID: 17002234.
    Abstract:
    Dr. Portnoy, a former senior clinical reviewer and manager for the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health, provides guidance for determining acceptable practices for the claims, content, and appearance of advertising and promotional materials for medical devices. In the course of doing so, he discusses important regulatory and legal precedents, and provides examples of successful and problematic advertising and promotion strategies including those that resulted in FDA Warning Letters, enforcement activities, and in some cases, monetary and criminal penalties.
