Where Arrowhead's grants concentrate

Arrowhead Medical Device Technologies, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Arrowhead sits between Aquisense Technologies, LLC and Assa Abloy Limited.

Arrowhead's three-year grant acceleration

Arrowhead Medical Device Technologies, LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
