USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 10 technology areas, active 2020–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION).
The verdict
Kingston holds 11 US patents across 10 technology areas, rank #24,658 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Kingston Health Sciences Centre has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Kingston Health Sciences Centre at rank #24,658 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Kingston Health Sciences Centre is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Kingston sits between Katcher Llc (11 patents, rank #24,654) and Konica Minolta Healthcare Americas, Inc. (11 patents, rank #24,662) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 41.9/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Kingston Health Sciences Centre's 14.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Kingston Health Sciences Centre against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Kingston's 11 grants land it in the top 32% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
