Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the patent development status of 13 general hospitals in Beijing, for reference in promoting the management and translation of intellectual property rights of public hospitals.Methods:13 tertiary general hospitals in Beijing as one of the top 100 hospitals in China in terms of science and technology evaluaton metrics in 2020 were selected as the research subjects. The patent application and authorization information of 13 hospitals was retrieved from the IncoPat technology innovation intelligence platform, during the period from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2021. The patent application and authorization status, international patent classification distribution, inventor information, patent validity, and registration of patent transfer were analyzed.Results:The numbers of patent applications and authorizations from 13 hospitals increased from 123 and 13 in 2012 to 2 053 and 2 368 in 2021, respectively. From 2012 to 2021, 13 hospital applied for 10 050 patents and authorized 6 896 patents, including 906 authorized invention patents, 5 863 utility model patents, and 127 appearance design patents. Valid patents amounted to 5 925, accounting for 85.92%, and valid authorized invention patents amounted to 796, accounting for 13.43%. 110 of these patents were transferred or licensed, accounting for 1.60% of the authorized patents.Conclusions:Aapplied and authorizated patents were rising year by year, but the ratios of invention patents and patient translation remained at a low level. The author suggestted that hospitals should highlight the value orientation of patents, strengthen-industry-academia-research cooperation, establish a professional management team and standardized management system for intellectual property, cultivate high-value patents, conduct pre patent application evaluation and screening, and improve patent conversion and technological innovation capabilities.
