Abstract

This document describes the development process of patient tracking system of Specialized Center for the Treatment of People with Problematic Consumption of Alcohol and other Drugs Carlos Díaz Guerra (CETAD CDG), that will work as a tool for the correct information management in the processes done by health professionals and decision making. CETAD CDG manages patient tracking information using matrix in spreadsheets and paper sheets. In consequence, there are data loss, duplicate data and tracking process delays. Because of the project features, XP methodology was used since it allows constant communication with clients, pair programming and simple design making system development agile. The result was a web system that complies with the CETAD CDG requirements in the information management of patient tracking process since the beginning until the very end of the treatment, being able to process 500 concurrent users in correct way as result of load and stress tests.
