Organ Donation Android Application

Abstract:

The “Organ Donation Android Application” is designed to facilitate and streamline the organ donation process by connecting potential donors, recipients, and medical organizations. The app provides a platform for users to register as organ donors, manage their donation preferences, and receive information about organ donation procedures and benefits. It aims to raise awareness, encourage organ donation, and simplify the coordination between donors and recipients, ultimately contributing to saving lives through effective organ transplant management.

Existing System:

Current systems for organ donation often involve manual processes through medical institutions, donation drives, and government registries. While effective, these methods can be fragmented, time-consuming, and lack user engagement. Existing digital platforms for organ donation may not offer comprehensive features for donor management, education, or direct communication with medical professionals and organizations.

Proposed System:

The “Organ Donation Android Application” proposes an integrated digital platform that enhances the organ donation process by providing a user-friendly interface for registration, information dissemination, and coordination. The app will facilitate easy registration, track donation preferences, provide educational resources, and connect users with relevant medical organizations, aiming to improve the efficiency and impact of organ donation efforts.
