• The application described in this thesis has been created, built and designed to help nurses or any medical personnel all around the world in being able to access a real-time database to store patient records like Patient Name, Patient ID, Patient Age and Date of Birth, and the Symptoms that the patient is experiencing. A real-time database is a live database where all changes made to it are reflected across all devices accessing it. This application will be beneficial especially in countries where access to a computer or medical equipment is not always possible. A phone is always ready use and at the reach of the hand, users of this application will always be able to access the data at any given time and place. We will be able to add a new patient or search for existing patients. In addition, this application allows us to take RAW medical images that can be used to identify anomalies in the blood sample. RAW images are important for this application because they’re uncompressed, which means, they do not lose any quality or details. The users of this application are the medical personnel that will be taking care of the patients. These users will have to create a profile on the database in order to use the application, since their data, like user ID, will be used in order to control the behaviour of the data retrieved and stored. We will also discuss the current and future features of this application, as well as, the benefits of this application when it comes to the medical personnel, as well as patients. Finally, we will also go over the implementation of such application from a hardware perspective, as well as a software one.
