This paper provides a novel implementation of blockchain technology, and data is stored in a decentralized distributed ledger to assist information protection in blood supply chain management and prevent data loss or identity theft. The present blood supply is used exclusively from the blood of volunteers (known as donors), making blood and its derivatives one of the significant roles in treating diseases today. In particular, depending on the type of product extracted from the blood (e.g., red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, plasma). They require different procedures and storage environments (e.g., time, temperature, humidity). However, the current blood management processes are done manually -where all medical staff does all data entry. Additionally, data about the complete blood donation process (e.g., blood donors, blood recipients, blood inventories) is held centrally and is challenging to examine accurately. Therefore, ensuring centralized data security is extremely difficult because of stealing personal information or losing data. In this study, we present the blockchain technology-based blood management process and offer Blood and Product-Chain, a decentralized distributed ledger that stores data to address these restrictions. Specifically, we target two main contributions: i) we design the Blood and Product-Chain model to manage all relevant information about blood and its products based on blockchain technology, and ii) we implement the proof-of-concept of Blood and Product-Chain by Hyperledger Fabric and evaluate this in the two scenarios (i.e., data creation and data access).

Blockchain-Based Management of Blood Donation

Today's a large number of blood donation management systems fall short in providing traceability, immutability, transparency, audit, privacy, and security features. Also, they are vulnerable to the single point of failure problem due to centralization. In this paper, we propose a private Ethereum blockchain-based solution to automate blood donation management in a manner that is decentralized, transparent, traceable, auditable, private, secure, and trustworthy. The proposed solution stores non-critical and large data off-chain using the decentralized storage of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS). We present the system architecture, sequence diagrams, entity-relationship diagram, and algorithms to briefly explain the working principles of our blood donation management solution. We evaluate the performance of our solution in terms of efficiency and effectiveness through performing security analysis. We make our smart contract code publicly available on Github 1 .

“…The proposal is to track the exchange of tokens, called KanCoins, between stakeholders to trace the blood chain. Peltoniemi, Teijo, and Jarkko Ihalainen, in [1], conducted an exploratory study on how distributed ledger technologies could be used within the supply chain of plasma derivatives. It also elucidates the concept of providing incentives to active donors to encourage more voluntary donation.…”

Existing blood management systems in India function as Information Management systems that lack dynamic updates of blood usage and detailed blood trail information, starting from donation to consumption. There exists no communication platform for surplus blood in one region to be requested from another region where blood is scarce, leading to wastage of blood. Lack of transparency and proper blood quality checks have led to several cases of blood infected with diseases such as HIV being used for transfusion. This paper aims at mitigating these issues using a blockchain-based blood management system. The issue of tracking the blood trail is modelled as a supply-chain management issue. The proposed system, implemented in the Hyperledger Fabric framework, brings more transparency to the blood donation process by tracking the blood trail and also helps to curb unwarranted wastage of blood by providing a unified platform for the exchange of blood and its derivatives between blood banks. For ease of use, a web application is also built for accessing the system.
