What this shows Vicentra's Innovation Score is 33.5/100 (45th percentile 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 Vicentra?

Each dot is one of Vicentra’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). Vicentra’s own 17.2 claims/patent is at or below the 18.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Vicentra's grants concentrate

ViCentra B.V. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 70.6% of grants classified under A61M (Devices FOR Introducing Media Into, OR Onto, THE Body ; Devices FOR Transducing Body Media OR FOR Taking Media From THE Body ; Devices FOR Producing OR Ending Sleep OR Stupor). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2019. By volume, Vicentra sits between Vericool, Inc. and Vycor Medical, Inc..

Vicentra's three-year grant acceleration

ViCentra B.V. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
