Online Blood Bank Management System

1.INTRODUCTION: There is no other redeeming act than to save a human life. People may feel afraid or selfish when it comes to donating blood. But if everybody thinks that way, then doctors may be unable to save so many human lives. People who have never donated blood may themselves require blood at some point of their life. But think what will happen if everybody feels unwilling to donate blood. There will be no blood available in the blood banks. So many precious lives will be wasted. It may happen to anyone, even you. So don't be afraid or selfish about donating blood. Blood is the fuel of life. In India, blood is required in every 2 seconds. More awareness should be created about blood donation so that more and more people come forward to donate blood. If human lives are wasted because of the dearth of blood in the blood banks it will be a shame to the human society. So donate blood and encourage other people as well. Aim of this project is to provide such user friendly and interactive service via web interface, mobile application and SMS. As soon as any updates occur in the blood database these changes are reflected in all the above mentioned interfaces. So by this manner this system provides a simple and quicker interaction among various groups connected with blood bank. And also our goal to develop a web-based system to manage blood requisition within the blood supply chain. The system is designed to overcome the drawbacks of existing system problem. The main objective is to improve the efficiency of data communication within the supply chain to reduce response time for each blood demand request. We also focused on managing blood inventory at each blood bank effectively. The results have shown that the proposed system helps enhancing the communication among blood partners within the supply chain network. The recipient can get blood in emergency case also .we also provide SMs facility to donors so that they can reach to exact location .

3.PROBLEM DEFINITION: 3.1 Problem with existing system : Blood bank has a major task to collect blood from donors, monitor blood quality and supply, and distribute blood and blood components to hospitals within the network. Blood distribution is an important activity within this blood supply chain. If the blood bank is able to deliver blood supply to its respective demand in a timely manner, patients' lives will be saved. But nowadays, many regional blood banks in our region confront with ineffective communication channel and insufficient information to fulfill its obligation. Thus, this leads to an inaccurate blood distribution and a waste of time, which can be harmful to patients with critical conditions. Problems with conventional blood bank system 1. Lack of immediate retrievals: -The information is very difficult to retrieve and to find particular information like- E.g. - To find out about the donor’s history, the user has to go through various registers. This results in inconvenience and wastage of time.

2. Does not meet emergency requirements. 3. searching required blood group and donor is tedious job. 3.2 Proposed system definition: Our goal to develop a web-based system to manage blood requisition within the blood supply chain. The system was designed to cope with above described problem. The main objective is to improve the efficiency of data communication within the supply chain to reduce response time for each blood demand request. We also focused on managing blood inventory at each blood bank effectively. The results have shown that the proposed system helps enhancing the communication among blood partners within the supply chain network. The recipient can get blood in emergency case also .we also provide SMS facility to donors so that they can reach to exact location. Also we are providing advanced mobile phones to have an application which connects to our website so that the one with our application in his/her cell phone can easily access our site and can get information.

This proposed system provides online storage/ updations and retrieval facility. This system promises very less or no paper work and also provides help to blood recipient, blood banks and donors also. In this system everything is stored electronically so very Dept of CSE, BEC, Bagalkot

6. SUMMARY Online blood bank system is 24X7 systems for different kind of people like blood bank personnel, doctors, donors, recipients and other general users. Here any person who has undergone blood test can be registered in any authorized blood bank as donor. That person can get facilities like information about blood bank, blood camps, donors and recipients. This project facilitates services like direct access to the site to get donors information if there exists an emergency. The whole the objective of the project is an online edge for bringing mutually giving blood donors and patients (blood requesters) that needs blood. The primary objective of the project is to create an interactive Blood donors, Blood requesters and Blood bank clinics. This web application is to be conceived in its current form as a dynamic site-requiring constant updates both from the blood donors as well as the blood requesters and is to enable blood donors (Volunteer) to place their profile and blood requesters (patients) to publish their requests. The mobile application of this project provides the users (with multimedia cell phones) the service of finding a blood bank with map interface. Here the application consists of a map which highlights the various blood bank locations and also it gives information about particular blood bank and also the list of donors in that particular location.
