Project Area of Specialization BlockchainProject Summary

Counterfeiting medicineis is a global problem with major risks. Through effective supply chain management is the biggest challenge in every industry, in healthcare, there is additional risk and complexity as a compromised supply chain in healthcare can affect the patient’s safety. The pharmaceutical supply chain is one of the most prominent verticals when it comes to the damaged areas of health supply chain Our project is based on detecting counterfeit medicines through simply scanning the medicine from our mobile application named “MEDTRACK”. We are using blockchain technology for our system to enhance security, integrity, data provenance, and the functionality of the supply chains. We will generate unique QR codes to set them on the medicine boxes. Users will be able to download the application on their mobile phones and scan the QR code of the medicine. In a second, MEDTRACK will verify the medicine. User can check the medicine details (e.g: MFG date, expiry date, weight, etc).

Project Objectives Project Implementation Method
  •   Medical Chain Data Storage In Blockchain

The QR code consist the details of medicine which is manufactured by pharmaceuticals agency. Illegitimate user can’t get access to the block of transaction due to public key verification of participant (recipient) and digital signature verification. of sender. This structure provides the non-repudiation verification using the sender cryptographic signature. The given structure also prevents the double spending problem because of QR code. Each transaction of block in blockchain will contain a unique QR code, which cannot be reused by the manufacturer for different medicine.

  • Drug Safety Using Blockchain

It produces the secure channel for drug safety among various participants like Manufacturer of smart contract, in medicine supply chain. each transaction data includes manufacturer and its product information, e.g., manufacturer-id1(MID1) has manufactured Drug-ID1 (DRUG1) and Drug-ID2 (DRUG2). This data is known and distributed to all users in medical chain framework.

  1. In proposed framework, pharmaceuticals organization will manufacture the drug with details such as drug name, location, timestamp, ingredients, usage of drug, and side effect and get authorized by regulatory approved smart contract. Manufacturer generates an encrypted QR (quick response) code for the details and attaches the transaction to the blockchain system.
  2. If any user want details of drugs, then public key must be shared by that user to the manufacturer. Manufacturer will encrypt the QR code and will send back to the user.
  3. The QR code will be decrypted by the valid user by their private key.
  4. The illegitimate user can not access the blockchain, only legitimate can access the blockchain using public key.
  • Methodology For Work

The methodology for proposed work which is based on private Blockchain technique ,where all the authorities has to get the membership by provider and digital signature by certificate authority.The digital signature will be provided by the certificate authority , hence the participants can trust on it. The following steps are involved during transaction in drug safety

  1. Transaction between participants will consist sender public key and digital signature, receiver public key and the information which is sent by sender.
  2. The shared information between the users will be in encrypted QR code format , which can be only accessed by receiver public key.
  3. Sender public key will be verified by all the participants of medical chain supply.
  4. Once the transaction get committed then it will be distributed to all the users.

Benefits of the Project
  • Wipe out the falsified and counterfeit drugs to save countless innocent lives.
  • Provide a Platform to verify the medicine.
  • Preventing the introduction of counterfeit drugs into the drugs distribution chain.
  • Facilitating the identification of counterfeit drugs.
  • Minimizing the risk and exposure of consumers to counterfeit drugs and biologics.
  • Primary focus should be protecting our pharmaceutical supply chain from criminal counterfeiters that serve no positive social value. This problem also presents an opportunity to re-evaluate the foundations of the pharmaceutical IP system to see if a better world is possible.
Technical Details of Final Deliverable

Each phase will have unique technical modules deliverable.

  • Initially we will define the complete in and out scope of our system
  • We will document all the requirements in the SRS.
  • we will start the designing phase.
  • Designing of Website and Mobile prototypes.
  • We will implement the backend development of server and database.
  • From the above points we will have a fully functional MedTrack System.

After all the implementation we will have the final deliverable of the system which will be our MedTrack System

Each phase will have unique technical modules deliverable.
