Technological advances and the massive use of
mobile devices have led to the exponential evolution of mobile
applications in the health sector. Blood donation centers
frequently suffer blood shortages due to lack of donations, which
is why blood donation requests are frequently seen on social
networks for blood donors in urgent need of a transfusion of a
specific blood group. Mobile applications for blood donation are
crucial in the health sector, since it allows donors and blood
donation centers to communicate immediately to coordinate with
each other, minimizing the time to perform the donation process.
The present work was to develop a location-based mobile
application for the search of blood donors, with the objective of
increasing the number of donors, having a greater population
reach, and reducing the time to search for blood donors. The
results obtained show a significant increase of 39.58% in the
number of donors, a reduction of 53.2% in the search time, and a
greater population reach.
