MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641020805 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Feb. 23, for 'thermoregulation integrated iastm tool for adaptive soft tissue mobilization.'
Inventor(s) include Mohamed Sahal; Dr. Manisha Jayakumar; and Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiyan.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention provides a thermoregulation-integrated lASTM device engineered to overcome the limitations of conventional manual tools that lack temperature control and real-time tissue assessment. Existing lASTM instruments deliver uniform mechanical scraping without responding to tissue temperature, stiffness changes, or inflammatory sensitivity, often leading to suboptimal outcomes or therapist-dependent inconsistency. The proposed device incorporates a dual-mode thennoelectric system combined with sensors measuring skin temperature, tissue stiffness, applied pressure, and motion. These inputs feed an adaptive algorithm that dynamically modulates heat or cold to optimize tissue extensibility, reduce inflammatory overload, and enhance therapeutic precision. Wireless connectivity and interchangeable conductive edges further support personalized treatment and clinical documentation, making this system a data-driven advancement over traditional static tools."
