Challenging the Status-Quo: Cardiorenal Protection with SGLT-2 Inhibitors in T2DM and Beyond—Expert Debate and Discussions
During this activity, multidisciplinary experts discuss the evidence with SGLT-2 inhibitors in reducing cardiorenal risk in patients with and without T2DM, as well as offer additional clinical pearls about their application across specialties.
This interactive monograph is organized in an easily digestible format, containing a mix of visuals, audio, video, resources, patient cases, as well as news articles and publications, in order to better facilitate the interpretation of the journey of SGLT-2 inhibitors across trials and to patient care.
Target Audience
This activity is designed for US-based healthcare professionals, including primary care clinicians (PCPs), nurse practitioners (NPs), physician assistants (PAs), endocrinologists, diabetologists, pharmacists, cardiologists, lipidologists, and other allied health professionals.
Learning Objectives
After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
- Review the underlying links between CVD, HF, DKD, and T2DM and how the potential mechanisms of action of SGLT-2 inhibitors help address cardiorenal risk in T2DM and beyond.
- Summarize recently-concluded and ongoing studies about the efficacy and safety of SGLT-2 inhibitors in addressing cardiometabolic risk in patients with and without T2DM.
- Discuss practical approaches and strategies, including multidisciplinary collaboration, for the use of SGLT-2 inhibitors in T2DM patients with cardiorenal risk.
- Develop individualized treatment regimens based on the latest evidence and guideline recommendations in order to address cardio-renal risk in patients with T2DM.
