Project Goal: [Developer tools to enable visualization, management for developers to build solutions in medicine, healthcare, improve transparency in drug testing with Ethereum and Tron DAO eco-system tools.
Enabling the bottom of pyramid through empowering pharma companies and the medicaleco-system to do medicine trial testing and clinical trials via Ethereum and Tron DAO blockchain enabled EMTTRs(Electronic Medicine Trial and Test Records as a Service), EHR and Radiology services on the cloud. EMTTRs as a service aims at providing
■Secure data storage, transparent data movement and data authenticity.
■Improving Data Transparency in Drug Testing Using Ethereum Blockchain
■Enabling healthcare community by empowering pharma companies & the medicaleco-system to do medicine trial testing securely, transparently using BNB blockchain ]

Website 2: Electronic Health Records]
Project Test Instructions: [The steps needed are as follows:
-
Run ‘npm install’ to install all dependencies mentioned in package.json
-
Install ‘testrpc’ as a global npm module
npm install -g ethereumjs-testrpc
- Run the script to start a local Ethereum node
./start-ethereum-node.sh
- In another terminal, run the script that will execute the workflow steps
./run-workflow.sh
This script will:
-Deploy a Regulator smart contract
-Add a CRO/pharma to this contract - in this case Roche
-Upload the trial protocol (data/TrialProtocol.pdf) to IPFS, running locally
-Deploy a Clinical Trial smart contract - in this case for Tamiflu, including the IPFS hash linking to the protocol
-Add 500 subjects to the trial
-Add 5 data points for each subject
- Run the script to read data from the blockchain contracts
./read-from-blockchain.sh
…

Project Details: [ Features:
Just in Time Service: Availability of pharma companies medicine records across different stakeholder through secure Ethereum and Tron DAO blockchain network.
• Record Management: Quality documentation reduces the issues regarding testing procedures and standardization.• Research: Enabling the healthcare community by empowering pharma companies & the medical eco-system to do medicine trial testing securely, transparently.
• Data Security: Efficiently sharing of data (including personal data), privacy concerns and patient enrollment strategies.
• Transparency: Improving Data Transparency in Drug Testing Using Ethereum and Tron DAO Blockchain.
A greater and more seamless flow of information within a digital drug discovery infrastructure, created by electronic medicine trial and test records as a service (EMTTRs), encompasses and leverages digital progress and can transform the way medicines are developed, tested and distributed to improve the global health economy and achievement of Sustainable Development Goals in Healthcare.
Advantages:
- Storing safe data
- Speeding up clinical trials.
- Ultimately lowering drug development costs.
- Patient Privacy and Data Integrity
- EMTTRs will be able to directly increase the quantity and quality of patients enrolled for clinical trials in a number of ways.
This type of distributed ledger could allow individual patients to store their medical data by anonymous methods, thereby making it visible to trial recruiters, who could then reach out to the patients if their data qualifies for the clinical trial. It could also streamline the communication between doctors and patients during the trial.
Our blockchain solution, EHR as a service, can help in:
- Legitimate storage of medical and environment records, medical invoices and environment data using open source PACS and IPFS for storage and react based spreadsheet application.
- Records movement in a secure way using NuCypher Re-encryption Protocol, Query and Retrieve application on bootstrap and Orthanc DICOM open source solution.
- Health counseling and environment awareness steps, preventive treatment and remediation over the ethereum and Tron DAO blockchain network using a decentralized twitter application and Embark tools.
EHRs can help in data cleansing, creating EHR, records legibility and coordination with hospitals, schools, pharmacies, diagnostic clinics, in case when movement of records is needed. The EHR application can be accessible using Internet browser, all the data is on the cloud.
Motivational benefits of our solution include -
- Patient information and his/her suffering due to environmental issues can be secured and shared anywhere at any time with help of EHR.
- Hospital and School Staff and clinicians can make the direct entry, reduces transcription cost.
- Quality documentation can be maintained (perceptible, readable, records, reports and charts).
- Reduce the issues of prescription of incorrect medicines.
- Complete patient history records improve the cure outcomes.
- These systems greatly enables the physician for immediate patient treatment by capturing the key records.
- EHR records are the key data for implementing the clinical decision support system.
- Health counseling and environment protection, preventive treatment and remediation using a decentralized twitter application and OSS tools.
