Comprehensive blood management software was created to provide for the information system needs of blood banks and donor centers.

The software was designed to manage, automate, and control activities associated with donors, donor collections, testing, manufacturing, inventory, and distribution. Called the ElDorado Donor, it was developed with scalability in mind and designed to manage the system needs of diverse facilities, from small hospital blood banks and community blood centers, to regional and national centers.

Utilizing an integrated modular configuration, ElDorado Donor offers functionality with flexibility to tailor features within the system to a facility's specific needs, and supports process control from collection to distribution. The software includes drop-down lists and easy access "find” forms. The At-a-Glance bars provide visual indications of the presence of relevant information offering quick and easy access to that information. ElDorado Donor was designed to support the industry standard for labeling (ISBT128), as well as the ABC Codabar blood product labeling standard.

ElDorado Donor includes safety checks for blood components, blood products, and other related supply items. Safety checks are performed throughout the system as part of the normal processing of donors, blood components, and other blood products. The software can provide extensive manufacturing controls that can be tailored for a specific site depending on its processes.

Global Med Technologies, Inc. (Denver, CO, USA) received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA; Rockville, MD, USA) for its ElDorado Donor blood management software product, which is produced by the company's Wyndgate Technologies division. The blood management software was designed with guidance from Wyndgate's Technology Work Group (TWG), comprised of industry representatives from around the world.
