About
The study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of the early initiation of canagliflozin treatment in hospitalized heart failure patients with volume overload (warm-wet) who require the use of I.V loop diuretic during the hospitalization period.
Full description
The study will focus on the role of adding canagliflozin to I.V loop diuretic therapy early in unstable hospitalized acute heart failure patients regardless of diabetic state, patients who will be included in the study will continue on canagliflozin for 3 months after hospital discharge to evaluate the incidence of re-hospitalization, mortality rate and other benefits related to HF symptoms will be investigated.
