Speaker Disclosure (Fig. 5) Speakers have been asked to disclose any financial relationships they have had during the past 12 months with any commercial interest. (A commercial interest is any entity producing, marketing, reselling, or distributing healthcare goods, or services consumed by, or used on, patients) so ACSM can resolve any potential conflict of interest prior to the activity. Speakers who have disclosed a relevant financial relationship report the name of the company and the relationship in parenthesis after his/her name. Speakers who have returned disclosure forms indicating they have had no financial relationships during the past 12 months with any commercial interest will be listed in the Final Program with the following statement: “(No relationships reported).” All relationships reported do not impact the ability for the presenter to provide an unbiased presentation.
