PharmaChain:确保药品供应链无假冒的区块链

PharmaChain: A Blockchain to Ensure Counterfeit Free Pharmaceutical Supply Chain

Anand K. Bapatla, Saraju P. Mohanty, Elias Kougianos

摘要:

获得基本药物是所有发达国家、发展中国家和欠发达国家每个人的一项基本权利。这可以通过建立药品供应链来实现,这将消除不同组织之间的界限,并使它们能够共同努力,使药品甚至到达地球的偏远角落。由于涉及多个实体,地理分布广泛,货物和经济流动非常复杂,因此PSC很难审计和解决所涉及的任何问题。这引起了许多问题,包括伪造的威胁增加,由于数据碎片而在整个网络中传播的信息不准确,客户缺乏信心以及向需要的地方分发药物的延误。因此,迫切需要一个强有力的PSC,对所有相关方都是透明的,并且可以轻松跟踪和追踪从制造商到消费者的整个药品过程。这不仅可以为消费者建立安全,还可以帮助制造商在消费者中建立信心并增加销售。在本文中,提出了一种新的基于分布式账本技术(DLT)的透明供应链架构,并实现了概念验证。所提出的架构的效率和可扩展性进行评估,并与现有的解决方案进行比较。

英文摘要:

Access to essential medication is a primary right of every individual in all developed, developing and underdeveloped countries. This can be fulfilled by pharmaceutical supply chains (PSC) in place which will eliminate the boundaries between different organizations and will equip them to work collectively to make medicines reach even the remote corners of the globe. Due to multiple entities, which are geographically widespread, being involved and very complex goods and economic flows, PSC is very difficult to audit and resolve any issues involved. This has given rise to many issues, including increased threats of counterfeiting, inaccurate information propagation throughout the network because of data fragmentation, lack of customer confidence and delays in distribution of medication to the place in need. Hence, there is a strong need for robust PSC which is transparent to all parties involved and in which the whole journey of medicine from manufacturer to consumer can be tracked and traced easily. This will not only build safety for the consumers, but will also help manufacturers to build confidence among consumers and increase sales. In this article, a novel Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) based transparent supply chain architecture is proposed and a proof-of-concept is implemented. Efficiency and scalability of the proposed architecture is evaluated and compared with existing solutions.
