`Determination of Patent Term Adjustment under 35 U.S.C. 154 (b)
`(Applications filed on or after May 29, 2000)
`
`The Office has discontinued providing a Patent Term Adjustment (PTA)calculation with the Notice of Allowance.
`
`Section 1(h)(2) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amended 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(B)(i) to eliminate the requirement
`that the Office provide a patent term adjustment determination with the notice of allowance. See Revisions to Patent
`Term Adjustment, 78 Fed. Reg. 19416, 19417 (Apr. 1, 2013). Therefore, the Office is no longer providing an initial
`patent term adjustment determination with the notice of allowance. The Office will continue to provide a patent term
`adjustment determination with the Issue Notification Letter that is mailed to applicant approximately three weeks prior
`to the issue date of the patent, and will include the patent term adjustmenton the patent. Any request for reconsideration
`of the patent term adjustment determination (or reinstatement of patent term adjustment) should follow the process
`outlined in 37 CFR 1.705.
`
`Any questions regarding the Patent Term Extension or Adjustment determination should be directed to the Office of
`Patent Legal Administration at (571)-272-7702. Questions relating to issue and publication fee payments should be
`directed to the Customer Service Center of the Office of Patent Publication at 1-(888)-786-0101 or (571)-272-4200.

`
`DETAILED ACTION
`
`Notice of Pre-AlA or AIA Status
`
`The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined
`
`under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA.
`
`Notice to Applicant
`
`This communication is in responseto after final amendment filed 3/3/21
`
`Claims1-9 and 11-13 have been canceled. Claim 10 is pending.
`
`1.
`
`Claim 10 is allowed.
`
`Allowable Subject Matter
`
`Reasonsfor Allowance
`
`2.
`
`The following is an Examiner’s statement of reasons for allowance:
`
`3.
`
`The closestprior art of record, Terashima (2014/0367256), teaches a medical
`
`measuring device and medical measuring system comprising: a measurement
`
`component configured to measure biological information of the subject by using
`
`the sensor mountedto the sensor mounting portion (Terashima; Col. 3, lines 33-40
`
`The measuring component 6 receives an instruction from the controller 5 and measures
`
`

`

`Application/Control Number: 15/760,867
`Art Unit: 3686
`
`Page 3
`
`biological information from a liquid sample of the biological object deposited on the
`
`biosensor 10. Therefore, the measuring component6 has a configuration to include a
`
`sensor mounting component (not shownin the drawing) having a connector which is
`
`electrically connected with an electrode of the biosensor 10 when the biosensor 10 is
`
`inserted into the device main body 2.) and a controller that is connected to the
`
`sensor mounting portion, the measurement component, the identification
`
`information reader, the display component, and the storage component(Fig. 8;
`
`Col. 3, lines 23-28 The controller 5 controls the medical measuring device 1 entirely.
`
`Information is inputted into the controller 5 from the input component4, the measuring
`
`component6, and the information protection component 9. The controller 5 gives
`
`instructions to the display component3, the communication component 7, and the
`
`recording component 8 based on the inputted information).
`
`4.
`
`However Terashima does not expressly teach: wherein, for a comment that
`
`has already been selected as a report comment during the previous
`
`measurement, the controller causes the display componentto display the
`
`selection screen that allows the user to select whether or not that comment will
`
`be in the report items, regardless of whether or not any comments have been
`
`selected during the current measurement.
`
`5.
`
`Any comments considered necessary by applicant must be submitted no later
`
`than the payment of the issue fee and, to avoid processing delays, should preferably
`
`
