High blood pressure patients: A recent study confirms that monitoring your blood pressure at home is important for best outcomes and prescribing decisions.  IMSWF physicians for many years now have recommended this approach. Patients documenting home blood pressures and reviewing that information in the office helps the doctor to make better decisions about whether more or less medication is needed to treat your blood pressure.  http://www.annals.org/content/154/12/I-23.full
