We hypothesize that Dapagliflozin could improve the diuretic response in diabetic patients with acute decompensated heart failure owing to its diuretic effect in addition to improvement of blood glucose level without remarkable effect on kidney function or electrolytes.
Full description
The study will include 100 diabetic patients type 2 patients who will be admitted to care unit with decompensated heart failure.50 patient will receive Dapagliflozin plus insulin (if needed) and Diuretics plus conventional heart failure measures ,the other group will receive insulin for control of blood sugar plus diuretics and anti-failure measures.
Inclusion Criteria:
Diabetic patient type 2 with history of chronic heart failure(HFrEF) ,there is no specified inclusion criterion with respect to heart failure etiology and/or ejection fraction.
Age more than 18 years Admission for acute decompensated heart failure The patient already on an oral loop diuretic for at least 1 month before admission, at a dose between 40 mg and 80 mg daily in the case of furosemide and an equivalent dose in the case of a different loop diuretic (20 mg of Torsemide will be considered to be equivalent to 40 mg of furosemide.
Exclusion Criteria:
The patients will receive:
Loop diuretics. Diuretics should be administered at doses sufficient to achieve optimal volume status and relieve congestion without inducing an excessively rapid reduction in intravascular volume.
furosemide will be given I.V either by continuous infusion or blouses Antifailure treatment: (Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors or Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers, Beta Blockers,Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists, Ivabradine, or others will be individualized according to the patient condition.
Dapagliflozin:
will be given in a dose of 10mg once daily ( GFR is more than 45 mL/min/1.73 m²) .
In Mild or moderate hepatic disease: No dosage adjustment required In Severe hepatic disease: will not be used.
Insulin. Insulin therapy should be initiated if blood glucose levels is ≥180 mg/dL (10.0 mmol/L) after initiation of Dapagliflozin treatment. Once insulin therapy is started, a target glucose range of 140-180 mg/dL (7.8-10.0 mmol/L) is recommended The use of subcutaneous rapid- or short-acting insulin before meals or every 4-6 h will be given to correct hyperglycemia according to sliding scale chart.
Control arm.
The patients will be given Loop diuretics. Anti-failure treatment. Insulin.
All the patients will undergo:
Follow up parameters
Diuresis :24-hour diuresis will be quantified every 24 hours (during hospitalization) from the 1st day until last day of admission.
diuretic response will be measured by weight loss and net fluid loss per mg . Changes in body weight measurements: the mean of weight lost every 24 hours and the total weight lost from baseline to the last day of hospitalization Renal function will be determined every 24 hours (during hospitalization) from the date of admission until the date of discharge.
Renal function is assessed with the serum creatinine level. Worsening renal function is defined as an increase in the serum creatinine level of more than 0.3 mg/dl at any time during hospitalization Electrolyte levels (sodium and potassium) will be determined every 24 hours (during hospitalization) from the date of admission until the date of discharge.
Electrolyte levels are assessed with the serum sodium and potassium levels. Patient-reported dyspnea : Patient-reported dyspnea is assessed every 24 hours (during hospitalization) from the date of admission until the date of discharge.
Patient-reported dyspnea will be assessed with the use five point Linker scale.
