Confronting the medical devices jungle

Sandhya Srinivasan
Abstract:
The report by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) on the international medical device industry adds to the growing documentation of health scandals in India in recent years. A comprehensive picture emerges of manufacturers selling untested products at usurious rates; criminally negligent doctors and medical establishments; and a regulatory system focused on the industry's growth with little regard for patient safety.
