Note, the live version of this session was CME accredited; this on-demand version is not.

This programme is supported by an unrestricted educational grant from AstraZeneca.

Learning Objectives

  • To explore the mechanisms of cardiorenal protection with SGLT2 inhibition
  • To examine how the safety-efficacy relationship of SGLT2 inhibitors vary with age, frailty, gender and race
  • To break down how SGLT2 inhibitors can be safely and optimally combined with other heart failure pharmacotherapies
  • To recognise the prognostic value of NT-proBNP in SGLT2 inhibition
  • To assess the merit of ejection fraction in heart failure care

Target Audience

  • Primary Care Physicians
  • Endocrinologists
  • Nephrologists
  • Cardiologists
  • Nurses
