This is the best summary I could come up with:
This is an obvious setback for Apple, which has been scrambling to find a way to circumvent the International Trade Commission’s import ban.
A letter from Masimo earlier this week revealed US Customs and Border Protection has approved a measure to remove the blood oxygen feature from relevant Apple Watches.
The ban initially went into effect last month after the company was found to be infringing on Masimo’s patents for blood oxygen monitoring.
It was then lifted a day later, after the federal appeals court issued a temporary stay.
“The Federal Circuit’s decision to lift the temporary stay is a victory for the integrity of the American patent system and the safety of people relying on pulse oximetry,” Joe Kiani, CEO and founder of Masimo, said in a statement.
“It affirms that even the largest and most powerful companies must respect the intellectual rights of American inventors and must deal with the consequences when they are caught infringing others’ patents.”
