A rejection on the ground of lack of utility is appropriate when (1) it is not apparent why the invention is “useful” because applicant has failed to identify any specific and substantial utility and there is no well established utility, or (2) an assertion of specific and substantial utility for the invention is not ...
Under the “first to file” system, there exists no value in obtaining a Poor Man's Patent since it now only matters who filed for the patent first and not who came up with the idea first. Essentially, a Poor Man's Patent has about as much value today as the postage affixed to the envelope.
The five primary requirements for patentability are: (1) patentable subject matter; (2) utility; (3) novelty; (4) non-obviousness; and (5) enablement. Like trademarks, patents are territorial, meaning they are enforceable in a specific geographic area.
There are five requirements that must be met to obtain a patent: patentable subject matter, utility, novelty, nonobviousness and enablement. This post will provide a general overview of this topic, but as always, this post is for educational purposes only and does not contain legal advice.
Surgery is usually advised for carotid narrowing of more than 70%. Surgical treatment decreases the risk for stroke after symptoms such as TIA or minor stroke. Surgical treatment of carotid artery stenosis includes: Carotid endarterectomy (CEA).
The clinically important degree of stenosis is considered the percentage of stenosis that corresponds to a substantial increased risk for stroke. The USPSTF recommendations3 consider 60 to 99 percent stenosis to be clinically important.
These organizations suggest that stenoses above 50% should be graded within a range (i.e., 50–69% or 70% to near occlusion) to provide adequate information for clinical decision making.
A grade of patent without stenosis was given to any vessel displaying no or only minor disturbances in color-flow characteristics and no stenoses of ≥50%. A grade of patent with stenosis was assigned to any vessel displaying moderate or severe disturbances in color-flow characteristics and a stenosis of ≥50%.
Pronounced with a long A a patent artery is one that is not completely blocked.
Significant stenosis was defined as 50%or greater. Lesions in the anterolateral, posterior left ven- tricular and marginal branches of the three major cor- onary arteries were only defined as obstruction of their. associated major vessels if the branches were large.
