18. Assessment of ambulatory blood pressure monitoring using fuzzy measurements

Abstract

We assessed ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) by fuzzy measurements. Four items in ABPM were evaluated with fuzzy models. These items were 1) mean systolic blood pressure, 2) hyperbaric area (HBA), 3) maximal systolic blood pressure, 4) minimal systolic pressure. We proposed fuzzy models for a assessment of each item. We guessed weights among items by analytic hierarchy process (AHP). We analyzed various ABPM data using fuzzy measurements.
