Why Do Hospitals Switch to Digital IPD Management?
Every sheet digitized
Continuity sheets, nursing notes, investigation sheets, treatment charts, vital sheets, surgery records, I/O charts — all connected in one patient file. No paper folders, no missing records.
Auto discharge summaries
Generated from all treatment records, investigation results, continuity notes, and surgery data. Doctors review and finalize in 2–3 minutes instead of writing from scratch.
No missed charges
Every bed day, injection, procedure, consumable, and investigation auto-added to the bill as it happens. Billing accuracy improves from day one, reducing revenue leakage.

What Paper IPD Records Does Lifemaan Replace?
A paper IPD file is a folder of loose sheets that get re-written at every shift and re-typed at discharge. Lifemaan replaces each sheet with a connected digital module so nothing is re-entered and nothing is lost between admission and discharge.
| Paper IPD record | Lifemaan module | What you gain |
|---|---|---|
| Doctor round notes | Continuity Sheet | One chronological timeline accessible to every treating doctor |
| Nursing chart & medication log | Nursing & Treatment Sheets | Timestamped, attributed entries visible to the doctor in real time |
| Vital flowsheet | Vital Sheet | Trend charts with configurable recording intervals |
| Lab / imaging requisition slips | Investigation Sheet | Results tracked and auto-included in the discharge summary |
| Bed allotment register | Visual Bed Board | Live occupancy with one-click transfers |
| Hand-written discharge summary | Auto Discharge Summaries | Assembled from the file and finalised in 2-3 minutes |
