Now here’s the best of what YOU had to say:
- Feds won’t produce evidence that could clear Stryker of charges. “Federal prosecutors declined to produce evidence Stryker Corp.’s biotech subsidiary, its former president and three sales reps say could clear them of criminal charges in a federal case alleging the illegal promotion of bone putties.”
- Biotronik outlines ‘exploding’ defibrillator response. “Friday evening, I met with Rex Richmond and Dan Schlewitz from Biotronik Inc. to hear their side of the controversy surrounding the withdrawal of a case report previously published in Europace pertaining to an “exploding” Biotronik implantable cardiac defibrillator.”
- Could iPod Touch be healthcare’s all-in-one device? “An iPod touch in every clinician’s pocket, fully connected to hospital information systems and other caregivers. That’s cool.”
