Abstract
In order to adjust the anti-hypertensive treatment of a 72-year-old man with MESOR-hypertension complicated by circadian hyper-amplitude-tension (CHAT), different strategies are evaluated to optimize the timing of treatment administration. Parameter tests and a self-starting cumulative sum (CUSUM) control chart are used to verify the effectiveness of various treatment modifications.
