Web-Based Patient Medical Record Application for Independent Midwives Using the Codeigniter Framework

The medical record application in healthcare has evolved as an innovative approach to improve the administration and accessibility of patient medical information. The patient medical record system currently used by Bidan Sri Wahyuni relies on a notebook for documenting patient information and medical records, making it vulnerable to damage or loss. This conventional approach complicates data retrieval, frequently resulting in duplication and poorly coordinated data storage, which in turn causes discrepancies. The new system's development utilizes Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) to structure software as a compilation of objects that encompass pertinent data and functions. The study uses Unified Modelling Language (UML) for modelling, facilitating the description and design of the software system created using an object-oriented methodology. The application utilises MySQL for database management, providing a user-friendly query language that facilitates data access for developers. The project seeks to address current challenges by enabling the digital administration of patient medical records through the development of an application. The CodeIgniter framework facilitates the development process, providing a systematic and efficient method for application construction. This framework is open-source and employs the MVC (Model-View-Controller) architectural pattern, enhancing the application's capabilities. The system testing procedure entails detecting vulnerabilities and verifying adherence to established requirements. The deployment of the patient medical record application constitutes a substantial enhancement for Bidan Praktek Mandiri, converting traditional management into a digital format. This shift streamlines medical record management, reducing the risk of data loss and thereby enhancing healthcare delivery.
