What this shows Poly-med's Innovation Score is 58.3/100 (top 5% 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 Poly-med?

Each dot is one of Poly-med’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). Poly-med’s own 16.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Poly-med's grants concentrate

Poly-Med, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 30 CPC subclasses with 64.9% of grants classified under A61L (Methods OR Apparatus FOR Sterilising Materials OR Objects IN GENERAL; Disinfection, Sterilisation OR Deodorisation OF AIR; Chemical Aspects OF Bandages, Dressings, Absorbent Pads OR Surgical ARTICLES;). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (13 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Poly-med sits between Ovonyx Memory Technology, LLC and Rhode Island Hospital.

Poly-med's three-year grant acceleration

Poly-Med, Inc. shows 16 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
