From the Bulletin of Health Policy and Law: Incentivizing Industry to Advance Pediatric Medical Device Development

Incentivizing Industry to Advance Pediatric Medical Device Development 

Pariya Ghayyem

Abstract: The limited profits afforded to pediatric device manufacturers do not incentivize the industry to develop treatments for these populations. Existing incentives, in the form of patent  protections, marketing thresholds, and development grants indicate modest potential for future development of these devices.
