TOPIC: ONLINE BLOOD TRANSFER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Case study: PRINCE REGENT CHARLES HOSPITAL IN BURUNDI

Abstract

Effective blood transfer management is critical to preserving lives and guaranteeing prompt access to vital resources in the field of medicine. A computerized platform called the Online Blood Transfer Management System (OBTMS) was created to improve and expedite blood transfer procedures between blood banks, hospitals, and patients. OBTMS makes it easier to track and manage blood inventory in real-time, allowing blood banks to keep enough supplies on hand and handle requests quickly. Hospitals can use an intuitive interface to submit blood requests, including the kind and quantity needed. The requests are subsequently forwarded to the closest blood transfer facility that has the appropriate inventory. The system's automated alerts make sure that all parties involved in the blood transfer process are informed on time. It also provides a safe, centralized database for the storage of transfusion records, blood test results, and donor information, improving accountability and transparency in blood management procedures. By streamlining blood transfusion services and maximizing resource use, OBTMS uses technology to improve patient outcomes and healthcare efficiency
