Patent has been approved in China
ProstaLund AB has received the positive news that a utility model application for their product CoreFlow Soft Stent has been approved in China.
A utility model patent is a form of simpler patent that can be maintained for 10 years, in this case until 2033.
CoreFlow® Soft Stent is a multifunctional product that can replace or supplement a urodynamic examination and also be used when urodynamics alone is not applicable, for example if the patient cannot urinate or uses a catheter. The product can also be used while waiting for an active treatment.
"This approval is important in our efforts to strengthen IP protection around our stand-alone products and their future uses. Urodynamics is usually a bottleneck in healthcare with long waiting times of several months. With our product, the doctor can get answers to some of their questions within 30 minutes", says CEO Johan Wennerholm in a comment.
