Portfolio overview

Stryker Trauma SA has been granted 20 US utility patents between 2015 and 2016, placing Stryker Trauma SA at rank #14,964 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 6 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61B (DIAGNOSIS; SURGERY; IDENTIFICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Stryker Trauma SA is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 30.3/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 20 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Stryker Trauma SA's 18.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 6 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Stryker Trauma SA against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
