Does more volume mean deeper claims for Medtronic?
Each dot is one of Medtronic’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). Medtronic’s own 15.1 claims/patent is at or below the 15.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Medtronic's grants concentrate
Medtronic CV Luxembourg S.A.R.L. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 97.6% of grants classified under A61F (Filters Implantable Into Blood VESSELS; PROSTHESES; Devices Providing Patency TO, OR Preventing Collapsing OF, Tubular Structures OF THE Body, e.g. STENTS; Orthopaedic, Nursing OR Contraceptive Device). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2016. By volume, Medtronic sits between MQ Gaming, LLC and Mylan Inc..
Medtronic's three-year grant acceleration
Medtronic CV Luxembourg S.A.R.L. shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 13 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.
