LESSON 01 / 50
SQL in Healthcare
A database contains related tables, each row is one record, and each column describes one attribute.
Patient
REAL HOSPITAL SCENARIO
Registration wants a small, readable sample of synthetic patient demographics.
WORKED EXAMPLESQL Server syntax
SELECT TOP (5)
PatientID, FirstName, LastName, DateOfBirth, CountryOfBirth
FROM dbo.Patient;- 1Choose the columns needed by Registration.
- 2Read from dbo.Patient.
- 3Limit exploration to five rows.
Expected result
Five synthetic patient rows with only the requested demographic columns.
5 REAL-TIME SCENARIO QUESTIONS
Practice from Basic to Hard.
Each question starts closed. Open it to see the situation, requesting department, reason, and clue, then reveal the answer only when ready.

WHY THIS OCCURRED
A new analyst is preparing an isolated SQL Server lab and must prove the database, connection, and sample data are ready.
REAL-TIME SITUATION
Registration wants a small, readable sample of synthetic patient demographics.
Clue
Check scope, row count, filters, nulls, duplicates, and a small sample against the original department request.
Reveal answer
Run the work only against the synthetic Healthcare Database. Confirm the selected tables (Patient), verify the filter and sort logic, inspect edge cases, and reconcile a sample with the source records. The accepted result should be: Five synthetic patient rows with only the requested demographic columns.
