Abstract

In recent years, fuzzy set theory and Fuzzy Logic are applied successfully in medical expert systems. The notion of ordered fuzzy number (OFN) was formulated as an extended model of fuzzy numbers, to eliminate some of their weaknesses. We propose description of medical test results with use of OFNs which can allow to include additional information about patients such us results of previous tests. The application of the ordered fuzzy inference method are illustrated by the example of the relationship between high blood pressure and stroke risk.
