Zomraty: E-Blood Bank Android Application for Donors and Life Savers

Abstract

Every day, thousands of people around the world receive an emergency blood transfusion because they undergo major surgery or a serious injury that needs replacing the lost blood. Or because they suffer from bleeding in the digestive system, from an ulcer, from a disease such as leukemia or kidney disease that causes anemia (not having enough healthy red blood cells), a blood disorder or severe liver problems, or even because of cancer treatments such as radiation therapy and chemotherapy. According to the American Red Cross, every 2 seconds someone in the U.S needs blood, this means that America alone needs 14,400 blood donors daily, considering that only one donor can save three needy blood transfusions. This is not all. About 38 percent of Americans are not eligible to donate blood or platelets, measure for that in the rest of the world. It would be terrifying to need a blood donor, given these numbers. Based on this, we created the Zomraty Application, which aims primarily to save thousands of lives in Algeria as a basic first stage for people who need a blood transfusion. Where it connects volunteers to donate blood and people in need by providing detailed information about the donor that allows the needy person to choose the volunteer who is closest and most suitable.
