Boston Scientific's key technology focus areas include Telecommunications, Computing & Data Processing. The portfolio spans 2 distinct technology classifications (CPC codes).
The Patent Strength Score (0-100, A-F) benchmarks a company's patent portfolio quality based on portfolio size (30%), claims breadth (25%), time remaining to expiration (25%), and portfolio diversity across technology areas (20%).
Patent Strength Score is based on portfolio size, claims breadth, time to expiration, and technology diversity using CPC classifications.
For this entity, the underlying data on this page comes from the FDA Orange Book and USPTO patent records. The breakdown above is the federal record; the paragraphs below add the per-entity context that makes the headline numbers usable for a real decision rather than just a data lookup.
The methodology behind every numeric value on this page is publicly documented on the the FDA Orange Book and USPTO patent records portal and described in detail on this site’s methodology page. Refresh cadence varies by underlying series; the page surfaces the as-of date for each number so readers can trace any figure back to the source release.
Practical use of this page is in combination with the comparison and ranking pages elsewhere on the site, which surface the same data for this entity’s peers within U.S. brand-name drugs. A single-entity reading without peer context can be misleading when an entity is an outlier on one axis but typical on another.
