When Robert Powell brings in his very tall 6‑year‑old son, Allen, for an office visit, he says he’s concerned because Allen’s blood pressure recently read in the “high” range when it was measured at a local pharmacy. His wife assures him that their son’s blood pressure is fine, based on past measurements at his yearly physical exams. Robert wants to know if Allen does indeed receive regular blood pressure tests and if he can be rechecked today. What should you tell Robert?
