MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641008229 A) filed by Meenakshi Academy Of Higher Education And Research, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Jan. 28, for 'a system and method for clinical workflow optimization in healthcare facilities.'
Inventor(s) include Preethi Murali; Jayannan J; Thephilah Cathrine R; and Bhavani Ganapathy.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A System and Method for Clinical Workflow Optimization in Healthcare Facilities The present disclosure relates to a system and method for improving clinical workflow in healthcare settings. The system described combines real-time clinical data, clinician activity information, and the status of healthcare infrastructure using modules that use sensors and computers. One or more processors create dynamic, context-aware clinical workflow representations and use predictive analytics to find possible workflow problems, clinician overload, and resource shortages before they happen. The system automatically changes clinical workflows by moving tasks around, changing the order of patients, and changing the times of procedures based on these kinds of predictions. The method also includes making sure that clinicians' workloads are balanced within set safety limits, making the best use of medical infrastructure, and constantly updating workflow optimization models based on feedback from outcomes. The system is a closed-loop, adaptive clinical control mechanism that makes operations more efficient, cuts down on wait times, makes patients safer, and makes sure that healthcare resources are used well. The disclosed invention offers a tangible, technical, and industrially relevant solution to the constraints inherent in traditional static and manual workflow management systems."
