What this record means
The record shows that CLOSE‑UNIPOLAR is a live, Principal Register trademark owned by Affera, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and it was officially registered on July 21 2026. The protection is limited to Class 009 goods described as downloadable and recorded computer software and mobile device software used to operate, control and manage surgical devices and ablation systems, to plan, map, navigate and perform surgical and medical procedures, and specifically a computer algorithm that collects intracardiac data. A similar name used for software or digital tools in the surgical or medical device field would create the closest record‑based concern, while uses in unrelated industries would be farther from the scope shown here. The record does not give Affera control over every possible use of the words “CLOSE‑UNIPOLAR.” The latest meaningful event is the notice of registration confirmation emailed on July 21 2026; no further dates are listed. The prosecution history contains no oppositions, cancellations or other enforcement actions, so the supplied history shows none. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market software for surgical or medical procedures under a similar name.
