Company patents

PACESETTER, INC.

PACESETTER, INC. demonstrates a surprising shift in its patent strategy, with a strong emerging focus on Drug Delivery Devices, which saw a remarkable 76.9% year-over-year growth in 2025, despite its relatively small 10.1% share of the portfolio. This contrasts with its dominant Electrotherapy / Radiation Therapy category, which, while representing 74.5% of its portfolio, experienced an 8.2% decline in 2025 and a significant drop so far in 2026, suggesting a potential re-evaluation of priorities within its core medical device offerings.
