Description
This Continuing Medical Education (CME) activity examines the evolving role of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) within the "Fantastic Five" pillars of guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure. Participants will review the mechanisms of action, evidence from landmark clinical trials, and current international guideline recommendations supporting the use of SGLT2 inhibitors across the spectrum of heart failure, with or without diabetes. The session will discuss patient selection, initiation and monitoring of therapy, management of adverse effects, and practical strategies for integrating SGLT2 inhibitors into routine clinical practice. Through case-based discussions, participants will gain insights into optimizing cardiovascular and renal outcomes using a multidisciplinary, patient-centered approach.
