Health Records Database Management 1


1. Introduction to DBMS
 Data and its management: Importance of data, limitations of file systems, benefits of
DBMS.
 Database concepts: Data models (hierarchical, network, relational), database architecture,
components of a DBMS
 Database applications: Realworld examples of DBMS applications in different industries.
2. Entity-Relationship Modelling (ER Modelling)

cardinality, and mapping them to an ERD.
 Normalization: Eliminating data redundancy and inconsistencies (1NF, 2NF, 3NF, BCNF)
3. Structured Query Language (SQL
 Data Definition Language (DDL): Creating tables, defining data types, constraints, and
primary/foreign keys.
 Data Manipulation Language (DML): INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE
statements, JOIN operations, WHERE clauses, subqueries.
 Data Control Language (DCL): GRANT, REVOKE statements for user access control
4. Database Design and optimization
