The programme focuses on summarising recent data on SGLT2 inhibitors showing reductions in CV risk, HF hospitalisations  and mortality, as well as improved quality-of-life. The expert panel also discuss how these agents should be introduced into clinical practice and contemporary heart failure guidelines for both diabetics and non-diabetics.

This independent medical education symposium was supported by a grant from the Boehringer Ingelheim & Eli Lilly and Company alliance.
