Abstract:

 An essential component of effective healthcare delivery is health record management. Although, conventional paper-based systems have long been the standard, they have a number of drawbacks, including inaccuracy, inefficiency, and a lack of accessibility. The adoption of a web-based health record management system proved to be a viable replacement for the paper-based system for handling medical records. However, there were certain obstacles along the way, including concerns about data security and privacy, data loss during the shift from paper to the web-based system, a lack of inclusivity, unauthorised access to patient records, and limited access to patient records because of inadequate internet access and facilities in Nigeria.  This dissertation therefore reviewed the observable limitations of the existing system and proposed the development of a mobile patient’s health record management system using mobile application development framework. The system was developed using Android Studio integrated development environment (IDE) and the Java programming language, with SQLite database and rapid application development methodology (RAD) which is an Agile method for enhanced program development especially for mobile application development. The new system outperformed the existing web-based hospital record management system in terms of speed, efficiency, robustness portability, data security and integrity as it enables both patients and doctors to access and book appointments remotely without having to go physically to the hospital saving man-hour and boosting the morale of both staff and patients.
