Blood Donation System using Smart Contracts over a Blockchain Infrastructure

我们提出了一个基于区块链的应用程序来跟踪血袋处理过程中的信息，如捐献、处理、分析、袋子分配和输血。我们认为，区块链的使用增加了血袋的可追溯性，改善了在处理不当的情况下的问责，并为献血者和接受者提供了更大的透明度。总而言之，区块链增加了加拿大公民献血系统的可信度，并通过接收有关他们献血的准确通知，增加了他们对人道主义工作的参与。*作为一家采矿农场公司，Bitfarm在部署和维护用于维护比特币等数字货币的专门硬件资源方面拥有深厚的专业知识。Bitfarm对区块链的未来进行了深度投资，因此正在寻求促进区块链技术的创新使用，以实现长期增长。我们的项目旨在进一步验证区块链在电子健康领域的适用性，Bitfarmers正寻求为其客户开发解决方案。此外，我们与比特农场目前拥有的采矿资源的整合工作将有助于弥合它们目前在数字货币中的使用与未来区块链应用之间的差距。*我们预计以下项目成果：(1)血袋数据收集用例和区块链实施的好处的详细分析，(2)展示实际使用案例的概念验证软件交付件，以及(3)关于当前硬件资源和区块链基础设施对eHealth域的适用性的全面报告，以及我们的原型与比特农场资源的集成。

We propose a blockchain-based application to track information when processing blood bags, such as donations, processing, analysis, bag allocation and transfusions. We argue that the use of blockchains increases the traceability of blood bags, improves accountability in case of mishandling, and provides greater transparency to the blood donors and recipients. Altogether, blockchains increase the trustworthiness of blood donation systems for Canadian citizens and increase their involvement in humanitarian efforts by receiving accurate notifications concerning their donations.****As a mining farm company, Bitfarms has a deep expertise in the deployment and maintenance of specialized hardware resources for maintaining digital currencies such as Bitcoin. Bitfarms is deeply invested in the future of blockchains and is therefore looking to promote innovative uses of blockchain technology for long-term growth. Our project seeks to further validate the applicability of blockchains in the eHealth domain, for which Bitfarms is looking to develop solutions for its customers. Furthermore, our integration effort with the mining resources Bitfarms currently own will serve to bridge the gap between their current usage in digital currency to future blockchain applications.****We expect the following project outcomes: (1) a detailed analysis of the blood bag data collection use case and the benefits of a blockchain implementation, (2) a Proof-of-Concept software deliverable demonstrating the use case in action, and (3) a thorough report on the suitability of the current hardware resources and blockchain infrastructures for the eHealth domain, as well as an integration of our prototype with Bitfarms' resources.
