Payments to healthcare organisations reported by the medical device industry in Europe from 2017 to 2019: An observational study via James Larkin & Frank Moriarty et al Giuseppe Biondi-Zoccai Patrick Myers Benoy Shah MD Mamas A. Mamas John Mandrola, MD

So important to see the influence of industry on the healthcare sector

Medical Devices need to adhere to *at least* the same standard as pharmaceutical companies in my opinion i.e. ABPI (and yes I know this isn't enough Margaret McCartney but we have to start somewhere!) Ash Paul DTB_BMJ

When we compare the European disclosure system transparentmedtech.eu to the US Open Payments system we see the complete lack of transparency for healthcare conflicts or interest in Europe.
