Implementation of SGLT-2 Inhibitors in Patients With Heart Failure Through a New Digital Strategy

Implementation of Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter (SGLT)-2 Inhibitors in Patients With Heart Failure Through a New Digital Strategy

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Apr 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The implementation of new medical therapies and guidelines, is a long and complex process that takes up to 10 years on average. This prolonged process is a global challenge and is mainly due to the complexity of cross-institutional patient care, involving primary care, out-patient clinics, nursing homes and patient associations. The main objective of this clinical trial is to determine whether a new digital strategy that employs official digital letters to inform and invite patients to evaluate their eligibility for new therapies, specifically the sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitor for heart failure patients, can facilitate and optimise the implementation. The aim is to increase the number of eligible patients with heart failure who start taking SGLT-2 inhibitors and reduce the time it takes to initiate treatment compared to the current process. Ultimately, this approach may improve patient outcomes.
