Project Title

MedDeliver

Project Area of Specialization Artificial IntelligenceProject Summary

MedDeliver is an android application which will facilitate people by providing them genuine medicines from authentic pharmacies at their doorstep. They will be able to make an order for a prescription once and get it delivered regularly by setting a schedule on it like weekly, fortnight or monthly.This scheduling will primarily be helpful for people with diseases like Blood Pressure, Diatebes for whom its crucial to take medcines regularly and on time. MedDeliver will also try and ensure that not only medicines reach the patient in time but they take it on time as well, for this they will be able to set an alarm for every dosage and then be reminded of it. Additionally, this app will allow patients to log their condition after every dosage. This feature will bridge communication between patient and doctor by letting the doctor know about how you felt after every dosage, making it easier for him to see how you've been doing, what effects or side effects the medicine had on you and what the next move in your treatment shoud be. MedDeliver will try and be your partner helping you through your treatment and recovery so you go on to live a healthy llife.

Project Objectives

MedDeliver aims to make people's lives easier by

• Saving them time and money as they won't have to go to pharmacy
• Ensuring that medicines reach people on time and regularly
• Allowing people to set alarms to take medicine on time
• Allowing people to maintain a log of their condition after every medicine intake that the patient can show to doctor

Project Implementation Method

System will be a combination of two android applications , one for the admin - an Android Tablet application, and one for users-a smartphone application. Backend of the system will be implemented using Firebase - a Backend as a service - platform for mobile applications providing various features.We will be using features like user authentication, Cloud Firestore(Document Type NoSQL Database) and Cloud Storage( for storing images).

User authentication:

User authentication will ease the process of authenticating users by methods like email/password sign-in , google sigin-in and facebook sign-in.

Cloud Firestore:

Cloud Firestore is a Document type NoSQL database and is a flexible, scalable database for mobile, web, and server development from Firebase and Google Cloud Platform. We will be using it for storing data like Prescription comprising of precription image and medicines entered by user, schedules set on prescriptions for delivery, complete condition log of patient against each prescription.

Cloud Storage:

Cloud Storage for Firebase is a powerful, simple, and cost-effective object storage service built for Google scale. The Firebase SDKs for Cloud Storage add Google security to file uploads and downloads for your Firebase apps, regardless of network quality. We will be using it for storing images of prescription against each user, which will be available at both admin and user side. User will upload it before he enters medicines as a proof he is prescribed the medicines by a doctor and admin will use it for verfication purpose. He will compare the prescription with medicines entered by user to see if only the prescribed medicines are ordered or not.

Benefits of the Project

There are thousands of patients in twin cities fighting with life-long diseases such as Blood Pressure, Diabetes etc.They need to take their medicines timely in order to stay healthy. Moreover, medicines need to be genuine considering there is a lack of check and balance from drug regulatory authority fake medicines are in abundance and its quite a task finding genuine pharmacies.Currently there is no such system that implements this whole scenario.Through MedDeliver we hope to fill this gap.

We want to make such a system that primarily, automates the process of medicine delivery as per patient's prescription and ensures genuine medicines reach the patient directly from authentic pharmacy in timely manner. this will save people time, and commute to pharmacies.

Secondly, people can benefit from MedDeliver by logging their condition. Whenever a patient starts new medication he/she faces some effects and he/she has to report the effects to the doctors but there is a chance you might miss some details or don't remember exactly when you felt a certain symptom which could be crucial in some cases. MedDeliver will automate this process for patients by allowng them to log their condition after every medicine dosage so a complete track is maintained through out their medicine course. In this way not only they can show this to their doctor but can also self-track their condition.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Final deliverable will be comprising of an Admin applicationand User application

Both applications will be Android based with Firebase as Backend for all the services mentioned in Project implementation method section.

The varoius functionalities will be:

User:

• Can upload his/her prescription with a list of medicines
• Can set schedule for the uploaded prescription
• Both prescription and schedule can be modified or deleted at any time but before the order is confirmed.
• User can track his order to know its status i.e Not Confirmed, Confirmed, On its way, Delivered and Received.
• As the system will maintain a list of all orders so can view all his deliveries at any time
• User can also set alarm for every medicine according to its dosage a day.
• Finally, user can log his condition after every dosage. This could be done using Emoji and and a comment explaining the condition(optional)

Admin:

• Admin will be able to perform all CRUD operations such as add, delete, modify and view
• Can view schedules of all orders and can search them by date.
• Admin then can update status of orders such as Confirmed, On its way, Delivered.
• Admin too can view all the orders delivered.
