NORMALIZATION OF TABLES – 3NF FORM


A relation is in the third normal form, if there is no transitive dependency for non-prime attributes as
well as it is in the second normal form. A relation is in 3NF if at least one of the following conditions
holds in every non-trivial function dependency X –> Y.
X is a super key.
Y is a prime attribute (each element of Y is part of some candidate key).

A relation that is in First and Second Normal Form and in which no non-primary-key attribute is
transitively dependent on the primary key, then it is in Third Normal Form (3NF).

1. Doctor table
The doctor table is in 3rd Normal Form (3NF) because:
Each column contains only one attribute
(e.g., doctor_id, doctor_name, salary, gender, dob, position, email, address, phone).
There are no partial dependencies (i.e., a non-key attribute depends only on the entire key, not just a
part of it).
There are no transitive dependencies (i.e., a non-key attribute does not depend on another non-key
attribute).
Therefore, the doctor table is in 3NF.

2. patient
The patient table is not in 3rd Normal Form (3NF) because:
The address column contains multiple attributes (street address, city, state, and zip code).
The age column is a derived attribute that can be calculated from the dob column.
To remove the partial dependency and transitive dependency, we can create two new tables:
patient_basic table, which contains the patient_id, first_name, last_name, dob, gender, patient_type,
and age fields.
patient_address table, which contains the patient_id, address, contact, and indate fields.
The patient_basic table will have a primary key consisting of patient_id. The patient_address table
will have a foreign key referencing the patient_id field in the patient_basic table.
With this new schema, the patient_basic table will be in 3NF, as there will be no partial dependency
or transitive dependency. The patient_address table will also be in 3NF, as the patient_id field will be
the only field dependent on the primary key.
3. Medication

Each column contains only one attribute


(e.g., med_code, med_name, stock, stock_units, brand, description, exp_date).
There are no partial dependencies (i.e., a non-key attribute depends only on the entire key, not just a
part of it).
There are no transitive dependencies (i.e., a non-key attribute does not depend on another non-key
attribute).
Therefore, the medication table is in 3NF.
