1. Executive Summary 1.1 Title of the project Blood Bank Management System 1.2 Project Objectives To develop a web-based portal to facilitate the co-ordination between supply and demand of blood . This system makes conveniently available good quality, safe blood and other blood components, which can be provided in a sound, ethical and acceptable manner, consistent with the long-term well being of the community. It actively encourage voluntary blood donation, motivate and maintain a well-indexed record of blood donors and educate the community on the benefits of blood donation. This will also serve as the site for interaction of best practices in reducing unnecessary utilization of blood and help the state work more efficiently towards self-sufficiency in blood. 1.3 Project execution agency and address Indian Institute of Information Technology and Management Kerala (IIITMK), Park Center, Technopark, Kariavottam P.O.

2. Introduction and Roadmap 2.1 Introduction India's blood banking system has serious shortcomings. The gap between demand and supply of blood is continuously widening. India has an annual requirement of approximately, 5.0 million units of blood. The actual collection is only approximately 3.50 million units. A study conducted by the National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO), regarding blood banking services in India has revealed many shortcomings, including the decentralised nature of blood services, a shortage of human, technological and financial resources and a deficit in the availability of blood, especially from voluntary donors. Paradoxically, very few blood banks are operating to their full capacity. Inappropriate use of blood and wastage is not an uncommon occurrence. Even during an emergency, the onus is on the patient's relatives to arrange for replacement of blood. Blood Bank Management System, the portal bridges the gap between the demand and supply of blood. This portal aims to bring blood donors and recipients under a common on-line platform. Donors can register themselves on the site after going through the basic requirements for donating blood. This portal also has useful information regarding blood donation such as scientific information, tips and facts. 2.2 Section Roadmap This section describes the road map to the rest of the document. Section 3 describes the high level understanding of the problem which includes problem statement, present system and the proposed system. Section 4 describes the technologies used to solve the problem. Section 5 describes solution outline of the proposed system. Section 6 specifies the deliverables and features of the project. Section 7 computes the estimate of the effort involved in completing the project.

3. The Problem 3.1 Problem statement Every year our nation requires about 4 Crore units of blood, out of which only a meagre 5 Lakh units of blood are available. It is not that, people do not want to donate blood. Often they are unaware of the need and also they do not have a proper facility to enquire about it. As a result, needy people end up going through a lot of pain. India has many blood banks, all-functioning in a decentralised fashion. In the current system, individual hospitals have their own blood banks and there is no interaction between blood banks. The management is ad-hoc with no semblance of organisation or standard operating procedures. Donors cannot access blood from blood banks other than the bank where they have donated blood. 3.2

Present System

All the blood banks are attached to hospitals and there is no stand-alone blood bank. As each hospital has its own systems and limitations, the co-ordination between the blood banks is practically impossible. Because of low number of donors and more number of blood banks, the efficiency and quality of blood banks are low, resulting in wastage of blood and blood components. The challenges in the present system are: 1. Some of the hospitals are having individual blood banks 2. Some of the hospitals are not having blood banks 3. Donors do not have any record of their donations or information related to their blood diseases 3.3 Proposed System An efficient blood bank management system should be developed, with the aim of ensuring that every patient has access to an adequate quantity of safe blood in a centralised manner. The management system should solve the issue of demand and wastage and lead to self-sufficiency in blood requirement. This should encourage new donors and retain old donors to donate blood. 5

4.High-level description of Technologies used 4.1 Tomcat 5.5 Apache Tomcat version 5.5 implements the Servlet 2.4 and JavaServer Pages 2.0 specifications from the Java Community Process, and includes many additional features that make it a useful platform for developing and deploying web applications and web services. 4.2 Servlets Servlets are the Java platform technology of choice for extending and enhancing Web servers. Servlets provide a component-based, platform-independent method for building Web-based applications, without the performance limitations of CGI programs. Servlets have access to the entire family of Java APIs, including the JDBC API to access enterprise databases. Servlets can also access a library of HTTP-specific calls and receive all the benefits of the mature Java language, including portability, performance, reusability, and crash protection. 4.3 Java Server Pages (JSP) JSP technology enables Web developers and designers to rapidly develop and easily maintain, information-rich, dynamic Web pages that leverage existing business systems. As part of the Java technology family, JSP technology enables rapid development of Web-based applications that are platform independent. JSP technology separates the user interface from content generation, enabling designers to change the overall page layout without altering the underlying dynamic content. 4.4 Hyper Text Mark-up Language HTML is a predominant mark-up language for the creation of web pages. It provides a means to describe the structure of text-based information in a document by denoting certain text as headings, paragraphs, lists and to supplement that text with interactive forms, embedded images, and other objects. HTML can also describe, to some degree, the appearance and semantics of a document, and can provide additional cues, such as

embedded scripting language code, that can affect the behaviour of web browsers and other HTML processors. 4.5 PostgreSQL PostgreSQL is a free object-relational database server (database management system), released under a flexible BSD-style license. It offers an alternative to other database systems. It offers an alternative to other open-source database systems (such as MySQL and Firebird), as well as to proprietary systems such as Oracle, Sybase, IBM's DB2 and Microsoft SQL Server. 4.6 Eclipse Eclipse is an open source community whose projects are focused on providing a vendorneutral open development platform and application frameworks for building software. Eclipse based tools give developers freedom of choice in a multi-language, multiplatform, multi-vendor environment. Eclipse provides a plug-in based framework that makes it easier to create, integrate and utilize software tools, saving time and money. By collaborating and exploiting core integration technology, tool producers can leverage platform reuse and concentrate on core competencies to create new development technology. The Eclipse Platform is written in the Java language. 4.7 Tortoise SVN Tortoise SVN is an easy to use Revision control /version control / source control software for Windows. It is implemented as a Windows shell extension, which makes it integrate seamlessly into the Windows explorer. It is not an integration for a specific IDE. It is developed under the GPL. Tortoise SVN has all the features of Subversion itself, including: ●

Most current CVS features.



Directories, renames, and file meta-data are versioned.



Commits are truly atomic.



Branching and tagging are cheap (constant time) operations.



Efficient handling of binary files. 7

5. Our approach to solve the problem

Donors in community

Blood Banks

Community Blood Bank

Hospitals

Donors

The approach to the current problem will have to consider the issues related to blood banks and donors. ●

Web portal as platform for all the activities 1. Donors can register and will get a membership card 2. Status of blood available in the community blood bank can be viewed 3. Provides tips and information on blood donation



Database for donors, blood banks-health care providers



Database for the supply and demand of blood and blood components



Security



Confidentiality



Service based access to blood donors, doctors, lab technicians

6. Project Deliverables 1. To establish an autonomous community blood banking system with the active participation of non-remunerated voluntary blood donors, registered as a society. 2. To establish a community blood bank (CBB) that will function as blood storage unit, component separation unit and transfusion services co-ordination centre according to the national quality standards. 3. To develop a computerised supply chain management and distribution system (DS) to collect and distribute blood from the CBB to the hospitals. 4. To develop a web based blood services portal for awareness generation and facilitate co-ordination

Specifically the system should address to the following: •

For citizens



Service directory



FAQ for citizens



On-line donor registration



Awareness generation



For hospitals



Guidelines for best practices
