This was reported in the press last week. This is something that some aortic disease experts have been recommending for a long time. Just be aware that the values for blood pressure suggested in this article do not take into consideration those with fragile tissue of aortic disease.
Typically physicians have not been monitoring patients blood pressure - they have relied on just the readings taken in the office. This is definitely a step in the right direction, and especially for those with BAVs!
