Abstract
RBCs stand for red blood cells (also known as erythrocytes), are the most common type of blood cells. They are the basic means of delivering oxygen, in the vertebrates to different cells and tissues. Hemoglobin is a protein in the RBCs, which carries oxygen and gives blood its red color. The normal range of RBCs in men is approximately 4.7 to 6.1 million cells per microliter and the normal range of RBCs in women is approximately 4.2 to 5.4 million cells per microliter. For a person to be eligible to donate blood, he/she should have the minimum number of RBCs in their blood for donation. This is only possible when the minimum duration between two donations is 3 months, be- cause it takes RBC about three months to develop completely. Many equipment have been developed or installed in hospitals for reducing energy consumption and increasing the efficiency. But even after installing these energy efficient devices in hospitals, it has been found out that these devices face a number of difficulties or obstacles. Thus, this paper focuses in developing an energy efficient software for blood transfusion that can function without interfering with any obstacles and thus giving accurate results.
