Does more volume mean deeper claims for Pacira?
Each dot is one of Pacira’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). Pacira’s own 20.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Pacira's grants concentrate
Pacira CryoTech, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 83.9% of grants classified under A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; Identification). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (9 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2019. By volume, Pacira sits between PIC Corporation and Personics Holdings, LLC.
Pacira's three-year grant acceleration
Pacira CryoTech, Inc. shows 21 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.
