Introduction: In Africa, mortality statistics are not reliable due to the low performance of the death registering systems. Our aim is to implement an efficient system. In this article we make a comparison between the existing system model and the new system that will be set up.
Method: UML has been used as the modeling language based on the 2TUP analysis methods.
Results: the new system for registering deaths and their causes was conceived and represented through activities, utilization cases and data model diagrams.
Discussion: We have developed a tool for death registration taking into account African hospitals characteristics. The progressive deployment of this system at the CHUSS of Bobo-Dioulasso enables users and actors to appropriate it.
