MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641044136 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 7, for 'hot flash triggered neuromodulation system for anxiety and sleep management in menopausal patients.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Pavithra S; Dr. Thiruppathi Arjunan; and Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiyan.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an intelligent wearable neuromodulation system designed to reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality in menopausal patients. The system operates on rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, ensuring continuous functionality and portability. It integrates multiple physiological sensors, including skin temperature, electrodermal activity, and heart rate variability sensors, to detect menopausal hot flashes and associated autonomic changes. A microcontroller in conjunction with an Al and ML module processes sensor data to identify hot-flash events and triggers for anxiety. Upon detection, the system activates non-invasive neuromodulation outputs such as vibrotactile stimulation, cooling pulses, or auditory feedback to promote parasympathetic activation. The device is enclosed in a lightweight, skin-safe wearable casing suitable fopnoctumal and daytime use. By providing continuous automated intervention, the invention reduces anxiety episodes, improves sleep continuity, and enhances overall quality of life for menopausal patients."
