Abstract:
Objective:This study aims to acquire the current status of abnormal patent applications in tertiary hospitals, the causes, and the management measures taken.Methods:An electronic questionnaire was used to investigate the administrative department of patents in tertiary hospitals. The main contents of the investigation included the status of abnormal patent applications, the management measures to patent, the causes of abnormal patent applications, and the coping measures.Results:A total of 102 questionnaires were collected. Among the surveyed tertiary hospitals, 64.7% had received notices of abnormal patent applications issued by the National Intellectual Property Administration. The most common reason was " achieving simple functions with complex structures, or combining or stacking with regular or simple features". The most common causes of abnormal patent applications were factors of the patent agency and insufficient patent knowledge of the inventors.Conclusions:The high proportion of tertiary hospitals where abnormal patent applications occurred involved multi-factors. Hospitals need to take multiple measures to improve the quality of patents, such as optimizing management systems, establishing the whole process of patent management mechanisms, strengthening the management of agencies, and conducting intellectual property training.
