Conducting a Comprehensive Patent Search
A comprehensive patent search can be conducted using specific or combinations of keywords. The search can include one or more of the following types:
- U.S. Patents
- US Patent Applications
- EP documents
- WIPO (PCT)
- Abstracts of Japan Databases
Patent Analysis
Usually hundreds or thousands of patents will appear, and these may cover a process, product or technology, or combination of these.

- Trends by filing and issue year
- Trends by country
- Trends by topic
- Trends by assignee
