Code Structure

DATA SEGMENT

• patients: Array for patient records (10 max)
• patient_count: Current patient count
• menu_strings: All interface text prompts
• temp_buffers: Input buffers

TEXT SEGMENT

• main: Program entry point, menu loop
• add_patient: Patient creation logic
• view_patients: Display all records
• search_patient: Find patient by ID
• exit_program: Clean termination

HELPER FUNCTIONS

• remove_newline: String processing
• copy_string: Memory operations
• compare_strings: Search functionality

Example Usage

Hospital Management System

1. Add Patient
2. View All Patients
3. Search Patient
4. Exit

Choose option: 1

Enter Patient ID: P1001  
Enter Patient Name: John Doe  
Enter Patient Age: 35  
Enter Patient Gender (M/F): M  
Enter Diagnosis: Influenza  

Patient added successfully!

Technical Details

Memory Layout: Each patient record occupies 40 bytes:

• ID: 8 bytes
• Name: 20 bytes
• Age: 4 bytes (word)
• Gender: 1 byte
• Diagnosis: 7 bytes

Limitations:

• Volatile storage (data lost on exit)
• Maximum 10 patients
• No persistent storage

---

Future Enhancements

• Add file I/O for data persistence
• Implement patient record editing
• Add appointment scheduling
• Expand to 100+ patient capacity
