The appointment relation and the patient relation as they are shown the 1NF above meet the
rules of 2NF.
The assignment should include an Entity Relationship diagram in 3rd normal form.
For the relation to be in 3NF, Sharma et al (2010) argues that it should meet following rules.
1. The relation must be in the 2NF
2. There is no non-key attribute that depends transitively on the candidate key.
3. Every attribute depends on primary key and it should not depend transitively on primary
key

Entity Relationship diagram that details the relationships between Relations.

In the diagram below, the primary key are the DOCTORID, PATIENTID, APPOINTMENTID,
ALLERGYID, MEDICINEID and SPECIALITY_NO

The description of the E-R diagram

The relationship between the specialty and doctor relation is one to one. Meaning one doctor
has one specialty.

The relationship between doctor to patient is one to many.


The relationship between allergy and patient is zero, one or many to one.

The relationship between patient and appointment is one to many.

The relationship between doctor and appointment is one to many.

And finally the relationship between medicine and appointment is zero, one or many to one.
