1. A blood pressure value analysis support apparatus for supporting analysis of time-series data of blood pressure obtained from a measurement result of a sphygmomanometer, the apparatus comprising:
a one-beat reliability determination unit configured to determine reliability of a blood pressure value for each beat, based on information indicating disturbance, in a state including at least a first reliability indicating that the blood pressure value for each beat should be used for analysis and a second reliability indicating that the reliability is lower than the first reliability for time-series data of blood pressure including the blood pressure value for each beat; and
a section setting unit configured to set a valid section representing a section which is used for analysis and an invalid section representing a section which is not used for analysis for the time-series data of blood pressure based on a determination result of the reliability of the blood pressure value for each beat, wherein
for the time-series data of blood pressure, the section setting unit includes a section in which the reliability of the blood pressure value for each beat is the first reliability in the valid section, and includes a section in which the reliability of the blood pressure value for each beat is the second reliability in the invalid section,
the section setting unit is configured to change the invalid section in which a length of a continuous period is less than a preset first threshold value to the valid section, and
the apparatus includes a display device configured to display the valid section and/or the reliability in a visually recognizable manner along the time-series data of blood pressure, wherein
the apparatus further comprises an operation device configured to receive a user instruction, the display device being configured to display the valid section in response to the user instruction being received by the operation device.
