3.1 SYSTEM ANALYSIS

System analysis is a critical phase in the development of any software project, including a
Hospital Management System (HMS). The primary goal of system analysis is to thoroughly
understand the requirements, design an appropriate system architecture, and ensure that the
system aligns with the needs of healthcare providers, hospital staff, and patients. A successful
HMS must streamline hospital operations, improve patient care, and meet industry regulations.
Below is an enhanced overview of the system analysis phase for the Hospital Management
System:

1. Requirements Gathering:

 Documentation Review: Begin by reviewing existing hospital policies, procedures,


patient care protocols, and regulatory guidelines (e.g., HIPAA or local healthcare
regulations) to identify key requirements for the system. This helps ensure that the system
adheres to industry standards and is compliant with legal, ethical, and safety standards. It
also provides a foundation for understanding the hospital’s operational workflow and
current system limitations.
 Stakeholder Interviews: Engage with a wide range of stakeholders, including doctors,
nurses, administrative staff, hospital IT teams, and patients, to understand their needs,
challenges, and expectations. These interviews offer insights into how the hospital
currently operates and reveal areas for improvement. For example:
o Doctors/Nurses: May highlight the need for easy access to patient records,
seamless collaboration with colleagues, and real-time updates on patient care.
o Administrators: Will focus on the need for efficient resource management, staff
scheduling, and reporting features.

9|Page
o Patients: Will emphasize ease of scheduling appointments, accessing medical
records, and receiving timely care updates.
 Workflow Analysis: Observe and analyze existing hospital workflows (e.g., patient
registration, medical record updates, appointment scheduling, discharge processes) to
uncover bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement. This step helps
ensure that the new system is designed to optimize and automate key hospital operations,
improving both staff productivity and patient satisfaction.

2. Functional Requirements Specification:

 Use Case Modeling: Identify and document various use cases that describe how different
types of users (patients, healthcare providers, administrators, and support staff) will
interact with the HMS to accomplish essential tasks. These use cases should reflect both
the day-to-day operational needs and the critical aspects of patient care. Some key use
cases include:
o Patients: Registering for the hospital system, scheduling appointments, viewing
medical history and treatment plans, requesting prescription refills, accessing test
results, and managing personal health information.
o Doctors/Nurses: Updating patient records, prescribing medications, creating
treatment plans, scheduling patient consultations, and tracking patient progress.
o Administrators: Managing patient admission and discharge processes, handling
staff schedules, overseeing hospital resources (e.g., beds, medical equipment),
generating reports, and ensuring compliance with healthcare regulations.
o Support Staff: Handling patient inquiries, scheduling tests or procedures,
coordinating patient transport, and updating patient records.
 Functional Requirements Document (FRD): The FRD should be a comprehensive,
detailed document that outlines all the functional features and components of the HMS.
Key sections of the FRD include:
o Patient Registration and Profile Management: A system for patient sign-up,
maintaining personal and medical history, and managing ongoing health records.

10 | P a g e
o Appointment Scheduling and Tracking: A scheduling system that allows
patients to book appointments, track doctor availability, send reminders, and
update statuses (e.g., rescheduling, cancellations).
o Medical Record Management: Real-time updates to patient charts, including
medical histories, prescriptions, test results, diagnoses, and treatment plans. This
component should ensure that healthcare providers can easily access and update
information.
o Staff Management: A system for managing staff schedules, assigning duties, and
maintaining records of work hours, leave, and performance. It may also include
staff certification tracking to ensure compliance with regulatory standards.
o Patient Discharge and Billing: A workflow to facilitate patient discharge,
including updating medical records, generating discharge summaries, and
preparing billing information.

3. Non-Functional Requirements Specification:

 Performance Requirements: Establish clear performance metrics for the system, such as
response time, system uptime, and scalability. The system should be designed to handle
peak patient volumes (e.g., during emergencies or high-traffic times) and deliver real-time
updates to healthcare providers. Performance tests should focus on system load, response
times under stress, and the ability to scale with hospital growth.
 Security Requirements: Given the sensitivity of medical data, robust security measures
are essential. These include:
o Data Encryption: To protect patient records during transmission and storage.
o User Authentication and Authorization: Role-based access control to ensure that
only authorized personnel (e.g., doctors, nurses, admins) can access certain types
of information.
o Audit Trails: To track user activities, changes made to patient records, and system
access for compliance with regulatory requirements.

11 | P a g e
 Usability Requirements: The system must be intuitive and easy to use for both
healthcare providers and patients. Usability features include:
o Responsive Interface: The system should work seamlessly across devices
(desktop, tablet, mobile) to accommodate the diverse needs of hospital staff and
patients.
o Accessibility: The platform should be compliant with accessibility standards to
ensure it is usable for individuals with disabilities (e.g., screen readers, voice
command features).
o Simple Navigation: The interface should minimize complexity and reduce the
learning curve for new users, especially for hospital staff with limited technical
expertise.
 Reliability and Availability: Ensure that the HMS operates 24/7 without significant
downtime, particularly since healthcare operations are critical and often occur at all hours.
A robust disaster recovery plan and backup protocols should be established to prevent
data loss and ensure business continuity.

4. Data Modeling and Database Design:

 Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD): Model the relationships between core entities,


such as patients, healthcare providers, hospital departments, appointments, medical
records, and treatments. The ERD provides a clear visualization of how data is structured
and interacts across the system.
 Normalization: Apply normalization techniques to organize data efficiently, reduce
redundancy, and optimize query performance. This ensures that patient records, treatment
histories, and staff details are stored in a consistent, logical manner.
 Database Schema Design: Design a schema that supports fast data retrieval, scalability,
and security. The schema should define the structure of tables (e.g., Patients, Doctors,
Appointments, Treatments), including primary and foreign keys, relationships, and
constraints.

12 | P a g e
3.2 DESIGN VIS-À-VIS USER REQUIREMENTS

To design the hospital management website in accordance with user requirements, we


need to translate the gathered requirements into a system architecture and user interface
design. Here's how we can approach it:

1. System Architecture:

 Frontend (Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript):


o Responsive User Interface (UI): Develop a modular, responsive, and dynamic frontend
using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. The design will focus on providing an intuitive, user-
friendly interface for different user roles (patients, doctors, nurses, and administrators).

o Component-Based Architecture: Organize the frontend using a component-based


approach, where each feature or section of the application (e.g., patient registration,
appointment scheduling, medical records, and feedback management) will be developed
as reusable components. This improves maintainability and scalability.

o Responsive Design: Use CSS media queries to ensure the interface works seamlessly
across various devices (desktops, tablets, and mobile phones). The layout will adjust
based on screen size, providing a consistent user experience.

o Client-Side Routing: Implement client-side routing using JavaScript to enable navigation


between different sections (patient portal, doctor dashboard, admin panel) without full
page reloads. This ensures a faster and smoother user experience.

o Integration with Backend: The frontend will make AJAX calls to the backend API
(using JavaScript or libraries like Axios) to retrieve data and display it dynamically,
reducing page reloads and providing real-time updates for users.
13 | P a g e
 Backend (Using Python and Django):

o Django Framework: Choose Python's Django as the backend framework to handle


server-side logic, data processing, and user requests. Django is known for its security,
scalability, and rapid development features, making it ideal for developing a hospital
management system.

o RESTful API Design: Design and implement RESTful APIs using Django REST
Framework (DRF) to manage communication between the frontend and the backend.
These APIs will handle CRUD operations for key hospital data entities like patients,
appointments, medical records, staff, etc.

o Authentication and Authorization: Implement user authentication (using Django’s


built-in authentication system) and authorization mechanisms to control access to
different sections of the hospital management system. This can include role-based access
control (RBAC), ensuring only authorized users (e.g., doctors, nurses, admins) can
perform certain actions (e.g., updating medical records, managing appointments).

o Security Measures: Use JWT (JSON Web Tokens) for secure and stateless user
authentication, ensuring that each request to the server is validated. Additionally,
implement SSL encryption, password hashing, and proper security best practices to
protect patient data.

 Database (Using SQLITE):

SQLITE Schema Design: Design a flexible SQLITE schema to store hospital-related


data (e.g., patients, medical records, appointments, staff, prescriptions). SQLITE's
document-oriented model will allow easy handling of complex, nested data (e.g., a
patient's medical history with multiple treatments, appointments, etc.).

o Entities and Relationships: Some of the primary entities to consider for the SQLITE
schema include:
o Patients: Patient personal information, medical history, and treatment details.
o Doctors: Doctor profiles, specialties, and assigned patients.
14 | P a g e
o Appointments: Scheduled appointments, status, and details.
o Medical Records: Medical history, diagnoses, prescribed treatments, and test results
o Staff: Employee data, roles, and work schedules.

o Data Integrity and Validation: Implement data validation and constraints to ensure data
integrity (e.g., using validation in SQLITE). The schema should also ensure that only
valid data is stored, e.g., date fields should store valid dates, appointments should be
scheduled within valid time frames, etc.

o Scalability and Performance: SQLITE offers built-in horizontal scalability, which makes
it well-suited for handling large-scale, growing hospital data. Optimize database queries
by creating indexes on frequently queried fields (e.g., patient IDs, appointment dates) to
improve query performance.

o Database Operations: Design the backend to handle essential database operations such as:

o CRUD operations for patients, appointments, medical records, etc.

o Search functionality to allow easy search by patient name, appointment date, diagnosis,
etc.

 Benefits of this Architecture:

o Modular and Scalable: React.js on the frontend ensures a dynamic and responsive user
interface, while Django’s backend provides a robust and secure environment for
managing patient data and hospital workflows.
o Flexibility: Using SQLITE allows the hospital management system to handle complex
and evolving data relationships (e.g., nested medical records, appointment logs,
patient histories).
o Efficiency: The integration between the frontend, backend, and database ensures
efficient data retrieval and updates, improving the speed and usability of the hospital
system.

15 | P a g e
o This architecture is designed to support the unique needs of a hospital management
system while being scalable, secure, and user-friendly.

2. User Interface Design:

 Accessing medical records
 Providing hospital information (e.g., visiting hours, location)
 Giving answers to common patient concerns like test results or available
services.

16 | P a g e
o Emergency Contact/Help Section: Highlight emergency contact numbers and
urgent care services with easy access, ensuring patients and visitors can quickly
find help when needed.

2. User-Centered Design Approach:

o Focus on User Needs: Embrace a user-centered design (UCD) approach by


focusing on the needs of different user types (patients, doctors, nurses, hospital
administrators). The system should be designed to prioritize convenience, ease of
use, and accessibility for all stakeholders.

o User Research: Conduct extensive user research to gather insights from different
hospital personnel, patients, and administrators. This can be done through:

 Surveys: To understand patient and staff satisfaction, pain points, and


feature requests.

 Interviews: To gather deeper insights into specific needs of healthcare


providers (doctors, nurses) and hospital administrators.

 Usability Testing: Test the system with real users (both patients and
hospital staff) to identify navigation issues, pain points, and areas for
improvement. Ensure that tasks such as appointment booking, medical
record viewing, and hospital staff management are intuitive and efficient.

o Personas and User Scenarios: Based on the research, create user personas (e.g.,
patient, doctor, admin staff) and user scenarios to guide design decisions. This
ensures that the website is tailored to the real needs of those who will interact with
it.

3. Information Architecture:

o Organizing Hospital Data: Develop a clear and intuitive information


architecture (IA) for the HMS, organizing content and features in a way that

17 | P a g e
makes sense for the users. The IA should make it easy for patients, doctors, and
administrators to find what they need without unnecessary complexity.

o Navigation: Structure the navigation to include essential features such as:

 For Patients: Patient dashboard, appointment scheduling, view medical


history, health records, and lab results.

 For Doctors/Nurses: Patient charts, schedules, prescriptions, medical


records access.

 For Admins: Hospital staff management, patient data, and resource


scheduling.

o Wireframes & User Flows: Create wireframes and user flows to map out the
website’s navigation paths and the steps users take to complete tasks like
registering as a patient, making appointments, and viewing medical records. These
visual representations help to design an efficient, logical flow of information and
interactions, improving usability.

o Intuitive Interaction: Ensure that user flows are straightforward and minimize
the number of steps required to perform key actions (e.g., booking an appointment
should take as few steps as possible).

4. Visual Design:

o Hospital Brand Identity: Define a visual design language that aligns with the
hospital’s brand and professional image. Use a clean and neutral color palette
(e.g., calming blues, whites, and soft greens) to convey trust, professionalism, and
comfort.

o Typography and Icons: Select clear, readable fonts that are easy to read across
devices and ensure accessibility for all users, including those with visual
impairments. Use intuitive iconography for hospital services like appointments,
prescriptions, medical records, and emergency services.

18 | P a g e
o Consistent Design: Ensure that the visual design is consistent throughout the
entire website, from the homepage to patient portals and doctor dashboards.
Consistency in typography, color scheme, button styles, and layout creates a
cohesive experience and reinforces the hospital’s brand identity.

o Mobile-First Design: Given the potential for patients and staff to use mobile
devices, prioritize responsive design. Ensure the hospital management system is
fully accessible and functional across all devices, including desktops, tablets, and
smartphones. This ensures that users can access medical information, book
appointments, and interact with healthcare staff wherever they are.

o Visual Clarity and Legibility: Ensure that all medical data, patient records, and
hospital services are presented in a clear, readable format. Avoid overwhelming
the user with too much information on a single page. Use accordion menus,
collapsible sections, or pagination to break content into manageable sections for
easier consumption.

CHAPTER 6: DETAILED LIFE CYCLE OF THE
PROJECT

6.1 ENTITY-RELATIONSHIP DIAGRAM (ERD)

An Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) is a visual representation of the relationships between


data entities in a system. It displays entities, attributes, and the relationships connecting them,
usually in a database. ERDs are essential for designing database structures, ensuring data
integrity, and organizing data logically.

 Entities: Entities represent essential data objects in the hospital management system, such
as Patient, Doctor, Appointment, MedicalRecord, Department, and Feedback. Each entity
corresponds to a table in the database, structured to store specific data related to real-
world items or concepts:

o Patient: Stores details about patients, such as their personal information and
medical history.

36 | P a g e
o Doctor: Contains data about medical staff, including specialties, qualifications,
and schedules.

o Appointment: Tracks information about appointments, linking patients with


doctors and recording dates and times.

o MedicalRecord: Stores detailed records of patients’ diagnoses, treatments, and


medication history.

o Department: Represents various departments within the hospital, like Cardiology,


Pediatrics, and Orthopedics.

o Feedback: Records patient feedback related to their treatment and hospital


experience.

 Attributes: Attributes define specific details for each entity, representing columns in each
database table:

o For Patient, attributes might include patientId, name, age, address, and contact.

o Doctor might include doctorId, name, specialization, and contact.

o Appointment could have attributes like appointmentId, date, time, and status.

o MedicalRecord may include recordId, diagnosis, prescription, and treatment


notes.

o Department may store departmentId, name, and location.

o Feedback could include feedbackId, patientId, comments, and rating.

Attributes define the structure of each entity, making it easy to query and retrieve information
based on specific criteria.

 Primary Keys: Each entity includes a primary key that uniquely identifies each record
within it:

37 | P a g e
o Patient has patientId, Doctor has doctorId, Appointment has appointmentId,
MedicalRecord has recordId, Department has departmentId, and Feedback has
feedbackId as their primary keys.

These primary keys ensure each record is distinct and prevent duplication, facilitating efficient
indexing and searching.

 Foreign Keys: Foreign keys establish connections between related entities:

o In Appointment, patientId and doctorId act as foreign keys linking each


appointment to a specific patient and doctor.

o In MedicalRecord, patientId links each medical record to a particular patient.

o In Feedback, patientId acts as a foreign key, linking feedback entries to the


corresponding patient who submitted them.

Foreign keys maintain data integrity by enforcing referential constraints, supporting meaningful
connections across tables.

 Relationships: Relationships define the associations between entities, illustrating their


interdependence:

o Patient and Appointment have a one-to-many relationship, meaning a single


patient can book multiple appointments.
