Description
Summary:High blood pressure, which has a widespread in today's world, is a disease that can cause serious damage to the cardiovascular system. To illustrate, in 1975, 594 million people were diagnosed with hypertension. However, the number has doubled over the last 40 years to become over 1.1 billion in 2015. Moreover, a significant number of patients do not even know they have hypertension due to the inadequate awareness of hypertension symptoms. Because of the difficulty with distinguishing the symptoms of hypertension, fuzzy logic can be utilized as an efficient diagnostic tool. Several research papers have suggested various diagnostic algorithms based on fuzzy logic. Hence, the contribution of this research is to investigate the most recent researches conducted on fuzzy logic for diagnosing hypertension. This will help to enhance the classification, diagnosing method and to overcome the limitations of existing approaches.
