Abstract

The medical records manipulated by the health professional include several personal and medical data, they contain important information for a patient, and this information is used for analysis in the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up to disease. Medical information about the patient is saved to physical records that are subsequently stored in filing cabinets, giving rise to problems such as loss or deterioration of a medical history. This paper presents the process of design, implementation and testing of a web application for the management of medical records, system that carries out the process of storing the information related to the health of the patient, as well as update or delete of each medical history of a patient, allowing to transform the physical storage of medical records in a digital storage.
