Abstract

Modern organ transplant and donor procedures present numerous necessities and also obstacles related to Organ procurement, their delivery, and transplanting are all steps in the enrolment, matchmaking, and disposal process. These processes must adhere to various legal, clinical, ethical, and technical limitations. Consequently, there is a need for a comprehensive organ donation and transplantation system that ensures fairness, efficiency, and an improved experience for patients, ultimately fostering trust in the system. In this research paper, we introduce a ground-breaking solution based on the utilization of a private Ethereum blockchain. This approach revolutionizes the administration of organ gift and transplantation by establishing a copiously reorganized, sheltered, appreciable, auditable, cloistered, as well as truthful framework. Our solution is built upon the development of intelligent smart contracts and is accompanied by the presentation of six sophisticated algorithms, including their thorough enactment, trying, and endorsement procedures. To gauge the effectiveness of our projected result, we undertake an extensive evaluation encompassing privacy, security, and confidentiality analyses. Additionally, we conduct a comprehensive comparison against existing solutions to highlight the advantages and advancements offered by our system. By leveraging the potential of blockchain technology and incorporating smart contracts, our solution addresses the complexities and limitations that have plagued organ donation and transplantation systems. This research aims to enhance the overall efficacy and slide of the procedure, ultimately benefiting disease one in require of life-saving tissue relocates.

基于智能合约的器官捐赠和移植以太坊私有区块链

现代器官移植和捐献程序提出了许多必要条件，同时也存在与器官获取、器官交付和移植有关的障碍，这些都是登记、匹配和处置过程中的步骤。这些过程必须遵守各种法律、临床、伦理和技术限制。因此，有必要建立一个全面的器官捐献和移植系统，以确保公平、高效，并改善患者的体验，最终促进对该系统的信任。在本研究论文中，我们介绍了一种基于以太坊私人区块链的开创性解决方案。这种方法通过建立一个大量重组的、受保护的、可赞赏的、可审计的、隐蔽的以及真实的框架，彻底改变了器官捐赠和移植的管理。我们的解决方案建立在智能合约开发的基础上，同时还介绍了六种复杂的算法，包括其彻底的制定、尝试和认可程序。为了衡量我们预期成果的有效性，我们进行了广泛的评估，包括隐私、安全和保密性分析。此外，我们还与现有解决方案进行了全面比较，以突出我们系统的优势和先进性。通过利用区块链技术的潜力并结合智能合约，我们的解决方案解决了困扰器官捐赠和移植系统的复杂性和局限性。这项研究旨在提高程序的整体效率和滑动性，最终造福需要组织移植救命的疾病患者。
