Pivot Health Technologies Inc. has 2 pending office actions in the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. These are handled by 2 distinct examiners across 2 distinct art units. This means that each of the 2 pending office actions is being reviewed by a different examiner in a separate art unit. This lack of overlap requires a tailored approach for each of the 2 pending office actions.
SAHAND, SANA is the busiest examiner with 1 pending office action. With 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units, there is no concentration of oversight for the company's current pending matters. This distribution requires managing two independent prosecution efforts within the medical device sector. The company must navigate the specific requirements of 2 different art units to advance its current portfolio. Each of the 2 pending office actions represents a unique technical hurdle in the mechanical engineering sector. The resolution of these 2 pending office actions will define the company's immediate progress.
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.
