Have you checked the file upload class that CI comes with?

First: read this entire page on the file uploading class in CI.
It includes this example, and notice where I've added a comment as to where you can add your database insert/update.
Code:
<?php
class Upload extends Controller {
function Upload()
{
parent::Controller();
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
}
function index()
{
$this->load->view('upload_form', array('error' => ' ' ));
}
function do_upload()
{
$config['upload_path'] = './uploads/';
$config['allowed_types'] = 'gif|jpg|png';
$config['max_size'] = '100';
$config['max_width'] = '1024';
$config['max_height'] = '768';
$this->load->library('upload', $config);
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload())
{
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('upload_form', $error);
}
else
{
$data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
// the upload worked
// YOU CAN ADD THE DATABASE WORK RIGHT HERE
// you'll have the filename and whatever other info you need available to insert into the db
$this->load->view('upload_success', $data);
}
}
}
?>
