49 pending office actions • 10 art units • 36 examiners • 0 of 49 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 83 patents granted in the last 365 days
Shl Medical AG has 48 pending office actions in Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering. The portfolio spans 35 distinct examiners and 9 distinct art units. RADOMSKI, MARTIN ADAM, is the busiest examiner with 3 pending office actions.
The pending workload is distributed across many examiners but a smaller set of art units, indicating recurring technical groupings with varied examiner handling. Counsel can use art-unit knowledge to support consistency while maintaining examiner-specific response records. The busiest examiner has a limited portion of the activity, so broader portfolio controls remain necessary for the other assignments.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
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.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (2%) |
| §103 only | 5 (10%) |
| §102 only | 1 (2%) |
| §112 only | 2 (4%) |
| Double-patenting only | 1 (2%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 2 (4%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 37 (76%) |
