Bayesian Networks provide a flexible way of incorporating different types of information into a single probabilistic model. In a medical setting, one can use these networks to create a patient model that incorporates lab test results, clinician observations, vital signs, and other forms of patient data. In this paper, we explore a simple Bayesian Network model of the cardiovascular system and evaluate its ability to predict unobservable variables using both real and simulated patient data.
