Abstract

In this chapter, a method is proposed to diagnose the blood pressure of a patient (Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse). This method consists of a modular neural network and its response with average integration. The proposed approach consists on applying these methods to find the best architecture of the modular neural network and the lowest prediction error. Simulations results show that the modular network produces a good diagnostic of the blood pressure of a patient.
