Decentralised and Distributed System for Organ/Tissue Donation and Transplantation

In today's era of digitisation, many technologies have evolved that every manual work can be digitally automatized. In the digital automatizing process, security and privacy are the most important and highly demanding aspects. Blockchain offers many features that can be used in almost every sphere of life. Features like decentralisation, transparency, privacy makes it an extremely useful technology. Therefore, by making use of all these features, several problems in healthcare sector can be solved like removing complex network of third parties and lack of traceability of transactions. This paper presents a decentralised, secure and transparent organ and tissue transplant web application (also called DApp), which not only nullifies the role of any third party involved in the organ transplantation, but also is a cost effective solution that saves the patient's from high cost of transplantation. The details and Electronic Medical Record(EMR) are hashed using the IPFS(a distributed file server), which reduces the cost of upload to a great extent as shown in the results section of this paper.
