to connect to internet through mobile phone and this would be the only cost incurred on the project.

Abstract—This electronic document is all about to generate an android application to solve the problem of people in India, to reduce their effort to maintain all their medical prescriptions and surgery reports .Instead they can have all those in a cloud and can be accessed from anywhere, anytime. Hence, the people can make sure they don’t miss any medical record so that they could get perfect treatment.

Technical Feasibility To develop this application, a high speed internet connection, a cloud database server, a web server and IDE (such as Eclipse) are required.

Index Terms-Feasibility, System Requirement, Issue Being Addressed, Solution, Potential Challenges and its Suggestions.

Social Feasibility The application is socially feasible since it requires no technical guidance, all the modules are user friendly and execute in a manner they were designed to.

I. INTRODUCTION Our idea belongs to the category Internet of things to deliver Public Services for the future. Today’s world is highly connected through internet and this can help people widely. It describes a future where everyday physical objects will be connected to the Internet and be able to identify themselves to other devices. However, efficient implementation of Internet of things does lead to a higher citizen satisfaction.

IV. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS A. HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS Processor: RAM: Space on disk:

II. PROPOSED SYSTEM

Pentium 4 256 MB Minimum 250MB

B. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS Operating system: Windows XP / Mac OS 10.5.8 or later/Linux Platform : Android SDK Framework IDE : Eclipse (Juno) Android : SDK Version 2.2 or Higher Emulator Database : MySQL Technologies : Java, Xml Front End : Eclipse Back End : SQLite, Cloud SQL server Data analytics for handling huge data.

The android OS application created for Hospital is user friendly. This allows faster access of data and also less memory storage capacity. The applications do not need any guidance for naïve user to use it.

III. FEASIBILITY The main purpose of feasibility study is to consider each and every possible factor associated with the project and determine whether the investment of time and other resources yield desired results. It also includes determining the investments, manpower and costs incurred on this project. The following feasibility has used in this project.  Economic feasibility  Technical feasibility  Social feasibility

V. THE ISSUE THIS IDEA WILL ADDRESS 

ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY Economic analysis is the most frequently used method for evaluating the effectiveness of a new system. The project is economically feasible as it only requires a mobile phone with Android operating system. The application is free to download once released into Android market. The users should be able

In our day to day life, most of us don’t care to maintain our old medical prescriptions. This in turn causes trouble to doctors to provide better treatment based on his previous reports. Also in critical situations like accidents, one could not always carry all of his previous medical prescriptions. As a result, a proper treatment would be a question mark as the doctors could not determine what medicine is

allergic to the patient or what medical treatment he presently undertakes. Many deaths have occurred as the lifesaving treatment (medicines) given to the victims were allergic or in opposite reaction to the medicine he was undertaking.

Another major problem is, in case of emergency situations like accidents where heavy blood loss occurs, there is urgent need of rare blood and unfortunately if the blood bank fails to provide it , the hospital finds it difficult to get help from the people by immediately conveying the urgency to save a life.

As a result, it leads to unfortunate death of the person.

Nowadays, we have the token system in hospitals where the people contact the hospital through telephones and get a token number and time slot to obtain treatment on a specified day. But on the specified day , many hospitals fail to keep up the time slot provided to the patients . So the patients suffer a lot by waiting a whole day, thus wasting their precious time.

VIII. SUGGESTIONS FOR POTENTIAL CHALLENGES i)

ii)

The doctors can use the android app to update also .

The doctor can get the patient’s login id ,enter the prescriptions and click the enter icon to update the details in the patient’s database.

A device can de set up in the hospital , so that when each person completes his consultation with the doctor , the device is pressed and immediately the token number of the patients of that particular hospital is incremented.

IX. STEPS THAT PATIENT SHOULD FOLLOW

1) Initially download the app . Register your details and get a unique id.

2) Each time when you undergo a treatment , provide your id to the doctor and get the prescription or scan details updated in your account.

3) If you are willing to donate your blood , keep the ‘urgent blood needs’ notification ON , so that you will be notified through a message if blood need arises.

4) If you want to know the token number of the patient currently undergoing treatment , just select the place where the hospital is located , name of the hospital and the doctor’s name(if there are many doctors in a hospital).Immediately you will be notified.

VI. SOLUTION 1) Each person will be provided a login where a database that maintains the person’s entire medical details(his prescriptions , scan reports and surgeries undergone ) with date , names of hospitals and doctors served is maintained.

X. VALUE PROPOSTION

2) Consider an application in your mobile phones that notifies you immediately when urgent blood needs occur. It also specifies what blood group is needed and also the name of the hospital with its address and phone number. So that, the need of blood will reach the people immediately and those having the same blood group and willing to provide blood can immediately rush to the hospital and save a lifeSometimes it may take few hours or days to get the work done. So after the work gets completed the user must be notified through a simple message. So that the user need not waste his time by visiting the office often and can do other stuffs.

1.Since the most valuable thing in the world is the life of a person , this project will reduce the death rate that has been increasing due to the improper treatment provided by the doctors at critical situations.

2.Lives of the critically injured can be saved by the blood donated.

3.Saves time for the people to take medical checkups regularly.

XII. CONCLUSION 3) Consider an app which allows you to select the place and hospital you want and immediately the app tells the token number of the patient who currently undertakes treatment .So that the patient can estimate the time at which he should be at the hospital for getting treatment. Thus the waste of time can be reduced.

.

Thus, this idea can be implemented to help people maintain their medical records safe, take proper treatment, save lives just by a user friendly android app.

VII. POTENTIAL CHALLENGES i) The expected issue would be , doctors will have to update the prescribed medicines in the patient’s database. ii) And the token numbers in all the hospitals should be updated for every minute.
