Patent Map for an Innovative Surgical Stapler
PublicContenu téléchargeable
open in viewerThe goal of this project was to develop a patent map for surgical staplers in partnership with sponsor Summed Taiwan, a venture capital company based in Taiwan. The patent map helped identify technological voids and areas of potential infringement in the patent landscape prior to the development of a novel surgical stapler technology. At the conclusion of the project, the team presented a Technology-Function table (patent map) and list of patent briefs as deliverables. The team developed several design recommendations for the sponsor utilizing these deliverables. The social implications of an innovative surgical stapler include improving ease of operation for surgeons, the quality of life of their patients, and Taiwan’s position in the medical device market.
