Case: Patents/Obviousness (P.T.A.B.)

The Patent Trial and Appeal Board said that challenged claims of Cleveland Medical Devices Inc.'s patent that relates to integrated sleep diagnosis and treatment devices aren’t unpatentable as obvious over prior art, in an inter partes review by Resmed Corp. The board held that the challenged claims aren’t obvious over various combinations of prior art, including prior art that pertains to a remote monitoring method for monitoring the condition of a patient and to a method and apparatus for delivering therapeutic treatments to patients without adversely affecting their sleep.
