Technology area: Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering
6 pending office actions • 3 art units • 6 examiners • 0 of 6 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 1 patents granted in the last 365 days
Enchannel Medical Ltd. has 6 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These actions are distributed among 6 distinct examiners. This means that each of the 6 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different individual. The portfolio spans 3 distinct art units, indicating that the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering filings cover a variety of technical disciplines.
TEHRANI, DANIEL is the busiest examiner for the company, though this examiner only holds 1 pending office action. This confirms that the 6 pending office actions are evenly split among the 6 distinct examiners. Practitioners must manage 6 separate examiner relationships across 3 distinct art units. The lack of examiner overlap prevents the use of a unified examiner-specific strategy.
Each of the 6 pending office actions represents a unique interaction with the patent office. The 3 distinct art units suggest that the filings cover a broad range of technical disciplines. Practitioners should be prepared for different examiner styles across the field. The even distribution of cases among 6 distinct examiners means that no single examiner's tendencies will dominate the overall outcome of the pending portfolio.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 2 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
