As part of the obviousness analysis, particularly when combining teachings from multiple references, we must consider “whether there was an apparent reason to combine the known elements in the fashion claimed by the patent at issue.” See KSR Int’l Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 418 (2007) (citing In re Kahn, 441 F.3d 977, 988 (Fed. Cir. 2006) (requiring “articulated reasoning with some rational underpinning to support the legal conclusion of obviousness”)); In re Nuvasive, Inc., 842 F.3d 1376, 1382 (Fed. Cir. 2016).
