MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611007549 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on Jan. 27, for 'system and method for real-time polypharmacy verification and adverse drug event prediction in geriatric patients.'
Inventor(s) include Jagdeep Kaur; Harsh Kumar; and Kavya Jain.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a hybrid intelligent system and method for real-time polypharmacy verification and adverse drug event (ADE) prevention, specifically optimized for geriatric patients. The system integrates heterogeneous data acquisition interfaces to ingest prescription data, laboratory diagnostics, and clinical documentation from electronic health records, digitized handwritten prescriptions, and unstructured clinical notes. A data standardization processor converts the heterogeneous inputs into a unified clinical dataset for analysis. A rule-based conflict detection unit performs medication interaction and organ-function-dependent dosing checks, while a predictive risk assessment unit estimates non-obvious ADE risks based on learned clinical correlations. A contextual analysis processor extracts latent risk indicators from narrative medical records. The system generates prioritized, actionable real-time safety alerts through an integrated clinician interface and applies geriatric-specific prescribing constraints, including the Beers Criteria."
