A normal physiological condition such as “patent” (meaning open) “antegrade flow” (meaning flowing forward) of the vertebral arteries” is not dangerous., rather it is totally appropriate.
Patent applications: the three criteria Novelty. This means that your invention must not have been made public – not even by yourself – before the date of the application. Inventive step. This means that your product or process must be an inventive solution. Industrial applicability.
Average medical device and drug patent can have a net present value of almost $200,000. Simply put, patents are a source of enterprise value that medical device companies cannot afford to ignore.
The time to obtain a patent for a medical device can vary depending on several factors. On average, the process takes around two to three years. Still, it can be longer due to factors like backlog at the patent office, the complexity of the invention, and potential objections or rejections during the examination.
Just talk to a patent attorney, someone who specializes in medical devices. He or she will do a search for you and make sure you're in the clear to apply for a patent. As you know, the FDA does regulate medical devices, but with less scrutiny that medications. It also will depend if the device is implantable or not.
We defined antegrade flow as early opacification at the distal interface of the clot with subsequent distal extension on 4‐dimensional computed tomography angiography.
Presence of antegrade flow was significantly associated with large artery atherosclerosis as the cause of stroke. Rate of antegrade flow was much higher in patients with the large artery atherosclerosis subtype than in those with cardioembolism.
Antegrade: Forward-moving. As in blood flow. Sometimes synonymous with anterograde.
In the presteal waveform, because of less significant subclavian stenosis, vertebral artery flow is always antegrade but with a transient sharp deceleration of blood flow after the first systolic peak 7 (Fig.
The normal range for net vertebral artery flow volume defined by the 5th to 95th percentiles is between 102.4 and 301.0 mL/min.
