Abstract: According to the present invention, blood pressure surges is detected from time-series data on blood pressure of a subject that varies with pulsation based on predetermined determination criteria. A feature amount indicating a characteristic of each blood pressure surge thus detected is obtained. Statistical processing is performed on an occurrence number of the blood pressure surges thus detected and/or the feature amount to obtain a statistical amount for each of time slots. A required attention degree indicating a level of attention being required to the blood pressure surge is obtained for each of the time slots based on the statistical amount of the occurrence number of the blood pressure surges and/or the feature amount. The required attention degree thus obtained and/or the statistical amount are displayed side by side for each of the time slots on a display screen.
