- Description
- Couples who are having trouble becoming pregnant now have hope thanks to in vitro fertilization (IVF), a revolutionary medical advancement. However, the IVF procedure calls for a large number of stakeholders, intricate paperwork, and highly confidential management of information that frequently results in inaccuracies, mistakes, and worries about data confidentiality and confidence. In this study, the revolutionary potential of the blockchain and smart contracts enabling the treatment of IVF is investigated. The IVF procedure may be accelerated by utilizing smart contracts, resulting in improved effectiveness, openness, and confidence among everybody involved. The paper explores the primary advantages of using smart agreements in IVF, including automation, implementing obligations under contracts, doing away with middlemen, assuring confidentiality and anonymity, and enabling safe and auditable operations. The implementation of electronic agreements and blockchain-based technologies in the discipline of IVF is also investigated, along with the problems it may face and possible alternatives. This study offers insightful information about the use of intelligent agreements and blockchain technology in the field of IVF, accompanied by conducting an in-depth evaluation of the literature on the topic, research papers, and interviews with professionals. The results demonstrate the possibility of lower prices, more accessibility, higher success rates, and better patient experiences in the IVF field. In general, this study intends to illuminate how blockchain and smart contracts have revolutionized IVF technological advances, opening the door for a more effective, transparent, and reliable IVF procedure.
