ELECTRONIC HEALTH ORGAN DONATION AND FUNDRAISE TRACKING SYSTEM
Today’s Electronic Health Organ Donation and Fundraise Tracking systems pose different requirements and challenges in terms of registration, donor-recipient matching, organ removal, organ delivery, and transplantation with legal, clinical, ethical, and technical constraints. There is a huge gap between donors and recipients of organs in Uganda making it difficult for the patients to access the required and needed organs on time. Hence it is against this background that we proposed and developed an Electronic Organ Donation and Fundraise Tracking System to provide convenience in accessing organs by patients from the available donors. The study's findings will enable the tracking of the availability of organs and potential donors and fundraisers in Uganda. Through linking the patients, fundraisers and donors directly thus being able to exchange contact information with each other. The project was designed using Data Flow Diagrams (DFDs) for the process model and Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERDs) for the data model. It was implemented using technologies such as; Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) for the interfaces, Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) for styling the interfaces, bootstrap for responsiveness, Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) for connecting the database and the interfaces, and My Structured Query Language (MySQL) for the database. The system has different users with different roles that is; the administrator, the donor and the patient each having their own login sessions and permissions. The developed system was tested and validated with its results indicating that it is sufficient to be a solution for the problem indicated below. The study’s findings enabled the tracking of the availability of organs, potential donors and fundraisers in Uganda. Through linking the patients, fundraisers and donors directly thus being able to exchange contact information with each other. In conclusion, the core reason for the establishment of an Electronic Health Organ Donation and Fundraise Tracking system was to reduce the inefficiency in organ availability, delivery and tracking in Uganda. Therefore, the technologies used supported the core objective of the system of bridging the tracking gap among the various stakeholders.
