Project Update: Electronic Health Record Using Blockchain
Here’s the latest progress on my decentralized EHR system!
Over the past few days, the project has evolved significantly with new features and smoother integrations. Here’s what’s new:
New Features Added
MetaMask Authentication: Users (patients/doctors) can now securely log in using their blockchain wallet.
IPFS Integration: Health records are now stored in decentralized storage with unique content hashes for tamper-proof access.
Smart Contract Access Control: Patients can grant or revoke permission for doctors through Solidity-based smart contracts.
Real-Time ML Predictions: Added symptom input + prediction feature using a Flask-based machine learning API.
Development Improvements
Improved frontend UI built with React + Tailwind for a cleaner experience.
Smoother Web3.js communication between the UI and blockchain.
Optimized smart contract logic to reduce errors and gas consumption.
Better data flow between IPFS → Blockchain → Frontend. What’s Coming Next
Adding detailed patient history dashboards
Implementing role-based authentication
Enhancing ML model accuracy
Final UI polishing + deployment
This project continues to grow, and I’m excited to see how blockchain can redefine healthcare data security and patient empowerment.
