MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641018063 A) filed by Cvr College Of Engineering, Hyderabad, Telangana, on Feb. 18, for 'an adaptive patient monitoring and distress alert system for parkinson's patients living independently.'
Inventor(s) include Satyanarayana Nimmala.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention concerns an automatic patient monitoring and alarm system for independent-living Parkinson's patients. The method uses a wearable device or smartphone with built-in motion sensors to monitor abnormal gait and rapid downward drops. Manual switching of an emergency alarm is possible by using a panic button interface. Long periods of inactivity beyond a certain threshold are also reported as potential distress. Once any emergency is recognised, the system will automatically send alert notifications, which include the patient's ID and real-time location to pre-registered caregivers by calling or texting. The system functioning is based on simple decision logic for low-power consumption, minimal computational complexity and cost-effective applications. The solution provides a safer environment for the patient and timely response from caregivers while promoting independent living for Parkinson's patients."
