What this shows Consort's Innovation Score is 34.8/100 (49th percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Consort?

Each dot is one of Consort’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Consort’s own 20.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Consort's grants concentrate

Consort Medical PLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 84% of grants classified under A61M (Devices FOR Introducing Media Into, OR Onto, THE Body ; Devices FOR Transducing Body Media OR FOR Taking Media From THE Body ; Devices FOR Producing OR Ending Sleep OR Stupor). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Consort sits between Chevron (HK) Limited and CytoSorbents, Inc..

Consort's three-year grant acceleration

Consort Medical PLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 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.
