Lucas Cates has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Implantable Pressure Sensing Device for Longitudinal Intracranial Pressure Monitoring
    Publication number: 20260174349
    Abstract: An intracranial pressure measurement device has a first plate abutting a patient's dura mater and displaced from a second plate abutting an endocranial surface of the patient's skull. The displacement of the first plate and second plate during elevated intracranial pressures are indicated visually on the device and visible through, e.g., X-ray imaging. This allows the intracranial pressure to be correlated to the mechanical displacement of the first plate from the second plate.
    Type: Application
    Filed: February 13, 2026
    Publication date: June 25, 2026
    Inventors: Daniel Cho, Jessica Blum, John Puccinelli, James Trevathan, Karina Buttram, Caroline Craig, Vivian Woo, Joseph Ho, Adrienne Simpson, Michael DelSignore, Lucas Cates, Ipek Naz Kadioglu
