BioMed Alliance survey of medical device shortages Feb/March 2023

General questions

With this short survey, the BioMed Alliance would like to assess whether you experience that any devices are no longer available for patient care or will be unavailable in the near future. This will help us to call for appropriate measures at EU level.

This survey follows our earlier survey on clinicians' experiences with the availability of devices and will allow us to collect more elaborate data.

Feel free to fill out the survey multiple times if you know of more than one device which is unavailable. If you have a long list of devices that is unavailable, please fill in our Excel table instead that is available: here.

All entries will be anonymous.
