Deformation Imaging by Strain in Chronic Heart Failure Over Gliflozins: an Echocardiographic Register on Sodium-GLucose coTransporter-2 Inhibitors

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 7 Feb 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

It is an observational, cohort, prospective, multicentre, Italian, non-profit study, with the aim of evaluating the modification of conventional and advanced echocardiographic parameters, focusing on speckle tracking and three-dimensional echocardiography (optional), in patients with HFrEF after treatment with SGLT2i Dapagliflozin and Empagliflozin. Participation in the study will last for approximately 18 months, and a total of 300 patients will be enrolled at the various Research Centers. The enrolled patients will undergo a first evaluation in which the anamnestic, clinical and conventional and advanced echocardiographic data will be recorded. At this point, the patient will start SGLT2i. After starting SGLT2i, a second evaluation will be carried out with a cardiological visit at 6 months, in which the same data listed above will then be recorded. At the end of the evaluation, the clinical follow-up will be continued for the duration of 1 year, in number and frequency according to clinical indication.
