// HOW TO READ THESE NUMBERS

How to read these numbers.

This page presents a pooled record—an aggregate of all art units where the examiner works. Pooled figures describe the past and are not predictions of any specific application's outcome. The allowance rate reflects decided applications only (allowed plus abandoned), excluding pending cases. When an examiner works across multiple art units, pooled rates smooth variation among different subject areas; per-art-unit detail, where available, appears separately.

These are aggregate statistics from this examiner's past public record — not predictions about any specific application. The per-art-unit figures below show how the record varies across art units. Our approach to patent prosecution →

METHODOLOGY & DISCLOSURES

Methodology. This page pools every art unit in which Examiner Thanhnga B Truong has a public record within Technology Center 2100. Statistics are computed from publicly available USPTO records, refreshed on a recurring schedule. This page's data was last updated June 25, 2026. The overall allowance rate is total allowed divided by total decided applications (allowed plus abandoned) across all art units — not an average of the per-art-unit rates; pending applications are excluded. Figures are rounded for display. Pooled sample: 121 applications.
