knowledge on a specific topic. It’s essentially a critical analysis of what has
already been written and researched about your chosen subject. It should be
focused on a specific research question or problem. While it may cover a
broad range of sources, it should ultimately be relevant to your own research.
A thorough literature review equips you with a deep understanding of the
current state of research on your chosen topic. This knowledge base is
essential for developing your own research questions, hypotheses, and
methodologies. Literature review prevents duplication of effort by identifying
what has already been done, you can avoid wasting time and resources on
re-inventing the wheel. Literature review help you to build upon existing
research and contribute new insights to the field.

The focus area of this assignment is a literature review under the topic of
Management of patients health records in the primary health care. This
literature review will require us to consult previous conducted studies from

contains writing of report and evaluation of the report.
Patient Health records are a compilation of patient health data that a
physician records during a patient visit and stores it for future use
(Ohuabunwa et al. 2015). There are legal and regulatory deficiencies in South
Africa that affect the country's implementation of Electronic Medical Records.
The Act does not address matters like record retention, which may give rise to
privacy concerns. In the public health system, there is also a deficiency in
coordination and infrastructure between the various levels of care. (Katuu &
Ngoepe 2015).
The importance of a literature review is to recorgnise the unresolved concerns
and problems in relation to the topic of the the research, to substantiate on the
literature that is published related to the topic, scheme different ideas from
different academics, relevancy of the articles. It should not promote plagiarism
and should identify the gaps.
