Design of a Fuzzy System for Classification of Blood Pressure Load

Nowadays, blood pressure is the most common way to diagnose hypertension, however it is important to observe all the data provided by a 24-h device, which is why it is important to analyze the blood pressure load, which indicates the daytime blood pressure load (% of diurnal readings >= 135/85 mmHg) and the nocturnal blood pressure load (% of nocturnal readings >= 120/70 mmHg). Different studies have shown the correlation between the blood pressure load and some cardiovascular problems. In this work we analyze the day and night load of 30 patients, which were classified with 100% accuracy by the fuzzy classifier and indicated a high index of people with a pressure load and this indicates that a cardiovascular event could occur at any time for these patients.
