Abstract :
At present scenario BP is the emerging factor of mortality. This is the impetus behind the work that had been developed for an intelligent, accurate, continuous diagnosis of hyper blood pressure and hypo blood pressure. Here fuzzy system plays a role of intelligent system which takes age, gender, body mass index, smoking habit, alcohol intake, pregnancy condition, family history as linguistic variables and diagnoses whether the person is having hypotension or hypertension. Apart from diagnosing, the developed system also gives the risk level of getting hypotension or hypertension in future by taking the above linguistic variables. So by improving his/her´s life style he/she can have a better control on blood pressure which can extend his or her lifespan. After diagnosing the system is programmed in such a way that it alarms immediately if there is an abnormability in the BP measurement so this helps in self assessment of blood pressure for the individual itself. This system also has an inbuilt provision of sending the analyzed data to the doctor, so that the person can get an online medication which saves the time, cost of travelling, so that the instant medication can be given to prevent the forthcoming adverse damage as early as possible. This system has been developed by using LabVIEW. The BP value is fed into the pc where the analysis of blood pressure value is done by fuzzy system designer available in LabVIEW. The fuzzy system analyzes the current status of the person by taking all the dependent linguistic variables and intelligently diagnose the BP status of the patient by itself. It also responds to the fluctuations in BP. This diagnosed data is send to the physician using web publishing tool in lab view.
