  • Participants with greater than 10 mmHg difference in the measurements of systolic or diastolic blood pressure between the two arms;
  • Participants who do not have the two upper limbs;
  • Participants with important electrocardiographic changes;
  • Creatinine clearance - less than 60 mL /min;
  • History of hypertensive emergencies and cardiovascular and / or moderate to severe cerebrovascular events in the past 6 months;
