Overview
This video series is dedicated to the adoption of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and initiation of guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) in daily practice.
In this second discussion of the series, Prof Giuseppe Rosano (St George’s University Medical School, London, UK) and Dr Biykem Bozkurt (Baylor College of Medicine, Texas, US) consider how we can be personalising our approach to the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors as disease modifying heart failure (HF) treatments.
They begin by discussing how one should be initiating SGLT-2 inhibitors across the continuum of ejection fraction and across patients who are treatment naïve versus those already on existing HF medications. Referring to the recent clinical practice guidelines, Dr Bozkurt advocates the early initiation of SGLT-2 inhibitors and goes on to provide practical advice on the monitoring and continual use of these agents for better long-term outcomes.
The full series of videos entitled 'Incorporating GDMT and PRO Endpoints for Personalised Heart Failure Management' is available to watch, or you can take the course to earn 1 CME credit.
