Question 23

How do you know when to submit an APS as a Detail Aid APS (s. 6.3) or a Service-Oriented Vehicle (s. 6.4)? Are there characteristic hallmarks that tell you which way one should go?
Detail aids are product advertising tools that are used by company sales representatives. They are used to directly promote a product's risks and benefits to health professionals. They contain only promotional messages. Service oriented vehicles are promotional tools that have a component that may be useful to a health professional even if the advertising component was removed. Examples are anatomical charts or drawings, patient information, patient aids, disease information etc.
