The technology is intended to help healthcare professionals monitor disease progression in real time, support earlier clinical intervention, optimise treatment strategies, and enable more personalised, data-driven management of patients.
Researchers at VIT Bhopal University and collaborating institutions have developed an intelligent remote monitoring system aimed at supporting the continuous assessment of pulmonary fibrosis, a progressive and debilitating lung disease that often requires long-term monitoring to track its progression and optimise treatment.
The patent technology named "Apparatus for Dynamic Monitoring and Analysis in Pulmonary Fibrosis" has been granted an Indian Utility Patent.
It functions as an intelligent system designed to continuously acquire and analyse patient-related clinical data.
The technology is intended to help healthcare professionals monitor disease progression in real time, support earlier clinical intervention, optimise treatment strategies, and enable more personalised, data-driven management of patients.
Designed with future-ready healthcare ecosystems in mind, the system has potential applications across continuous patient monitoring, clinical decision support, remote healthcare delivery, telemedicine, treatment evaluation, respiratory disease research, and personalised pulmonary care.
By enabling longitudinal analysis of patient data, the technology seeks to support clinicians with timely insights that can improve long-term disease management.
The patented technology was developed by Dr. Rajneesh Kumar Patel and Dr. Siddharth Singh Chouhan from the School of Computer Science and Engineering, VIT Bhopal University, in collaboration with Dr. Nancy Kumari, a former researcher at VIT Bhopal and currently at SRM University Delhi-NCR, Dr. Krishna Kumar Pandey from NIT Agartala, Amit Patel, and Sunil Kumar Gautam from MANIT Bhopal.
Designed with future-ready healthcare ecosystems in mind, the system has potential applications across continuous patient monitoring, clinical decision support, remote healthcare delivery, telemedicine, treatment evaluation, respiratory disease research, and personalised pulmonary care. By enabling longitudinal analysis of patient data, the technology seeks to support clinicians with timely insights that can improve long-term disease management.
Commenting on the latest technology, Dr. Rajneesh Kumar Patel said, "Pulmonary fibrosis is a complex disease that demands continuous monitoring to understand how a patient's condition evolves over time. Our objective was to develop an intelligent system that can assist clinicians by analysing patient data dynamically, supporting timely interventions and more informed treatment decisions. We hope this technology will contribute to the future of connected and personalised respiratory care."
The patent adds to VIT Bhopal University's growing portfolio of intellectual property and reinforces its focus on translating academic research into impactful technologies with real-world applications.
