USITC investigates Apple Watch over patent claims

The US International Trade Commission will launch an investigation into Apple over potential infringement of electrocardiogram (ECG) patents by Apple.
This decision was prompted by a complaint filed by AliveCor on April 20, 2021, which alleges that Apple violated Section 337 of the Tariff Act through the import and sale of Apple Watches that the company alleges infringes on its patents.
In the complaint, AliveCor requests that the USITC issues a limited exclusion order and a cease and desist order.
AliveCor was the first company to launch an ECG device, named the KardiaBand, which added heart-monitoring functionality to earlier Apple Watch models prior to the introduction of the Apple Watch Series 4, which featured built-in ECG monitoring.
