Background:In patients with heart failure (HF), discontinued medical therapy because of adverse events (AE) is associated with high mortality. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treated with sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have a lower risk of HF, but AE sometimes occur with the introduction of SGLT2i. In order to use SGLT2i safely in patients with HF, we investigated factors associated with AE following the introduction of SGLT2i.

Methods and Results:AE were defined as hypotension or an increase in serum creatinine ≥0.3 mg/dL by the fifth day after SGLT2i introduction. Sixty-four hospitalized patients with HF and T2DM treated with an SGLT2i were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into 2 groups: with AE (n=13, 20.3%) and without (n=51, 79.7%). On logistic regression analysis, female sex, hemoglobin ≥15.2 g/dL, serum creatinine ≥1.05 mg/dL, and cardiac index on echocardiography ≤2.15 L/min/m2, were significantly associated with AE. A scoring system was constructed to predict AE according to significant variables (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.83; P<0.001) and the cut-off point was 2 points.

Conclusions:Female sex, hemoconcentration, kidney injury, and low cardiac output were associated with AE at SGLT2i initiation in patients with HF. Using this scoring system, introduction of SGLT2i could be done safely in patients with HF.
