Smart Application for Blood Donation Management in Health Domain

The health sector is one of the most important sectors that needs permanent and continuous development because it is directly related to people's lives. One of the most important matters is to provide the required quantities of blood promptly as needed, as the delay in providing it by a few minutes may pose a threat to the patient's life. Unfortunately, the current blood donation campaigns are insufficient despite their importance. Smartphone applications are facilitating many tasks and improving their performance, so this research presents the idea of an electronic platform with a smart application that helps provide large quantities of blood required when needed by immediately notifying all volunteers. Moreover, the application will improve the health systems' management of the available quantities of blood in each center, creating an organized semi-automated distribution of these quantities to the centers according to the need, organizing the work of campaigns, and informing about them. A web application is built with a smartphone application and tested on a beta environment to ensure that the idea is easy to implement and effective. In the future, it will be presented to government agencies for approval within the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, especially with the high rates of traffic accidents that require the availability of donors in many cases.
