What is Blood Bank Management System

Nearly all of the Egyptian hospitals are currently suffering from shortage in rare blood types (e.g., -AB, -B, +AB), which are needed to perform vital surgeries. This leads them (hospitals or doctors) to ask patients' relatives to donate the amount of the required blood. The alternative is that they are forced to pay for the blood if the required type and amount is already available in these hospitals or the blood banks. The main idea of this work is solving problems related to the blood banks from collecting blood from donators to distributing blood bags for interested hospitals. This system is developed in order to enhance the management, performance, and the quality of services for the management of blood banks, which will be positively reflected on many patients in hospitals. This chapter targets undergraduate students, academic researchers, development engineers, and course designers and instructors.
