MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631051415 A) filed by Guru Nanak Institute Of Technology, Kolkata, West Bengal, on April 22, for 'integrated infection control compliance monitoring model for hospitals.'
Inventor(s) include Ms. Debattri Das; Mr. Tarpan Chakrabarty; Ms. Debashruti Ganguly; and Dr. Nabaneeta Banerjee.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An Integrated Infection Control Compliance Monitoring Model for Hospitals that collects and integrates data for multiple infection-control indicators (for example hand hygiene adherence, sterilization practices, biomedical waste segregation, PPE utilization, environmental sanitation and antimicrobial usage surveillance), computes indicator-level and composite compliance scores for each ward and department, classifies operational units according to configurable risk thresholds, and generates automated alerts and recommended corrective interventions tied to compliance breaches; the model further implements a feedback loop with structured monitoring cycles (for example weekly monitoring, monthly benchmarking and quarterly surveillance review) and stores historical performance for trend analysis and benchmarking, thereby enabling prospective identification of infection-risk zones, targeted interventions and continuous performance improvement across diverse hospital settings."
