  • Abstract
    The paper presents a fuzzy logic-based approach to automation of drug delivery in renal patients. Dialysis data collected from 200 patients serve as a basis for reconstruction of the dosing regimen in terms of rules. The fuzzy rule-based representation allows the physician for quick verification of the dosing regimen, as well as easy implementation of numerical techniques for its adjustment.
