Assessing the Clinical Outcomes of Dapagliflozin Versus Acetazolamide in Patients With Acute Heart Failure


Sponsor

Mansoura University

Enrollment

100 participants

Start Date

Aug 15, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This study investigates the comparative clinical outcomes of dapagliflozin, an SGLT-2 inhibitor, versus acetazolamide, a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, in patients hospitalized with acute heart failure (AHF). The trial aims to assess the effectiveness of these drugs in improving natriuretic and diuretic responses and shortening hospital stays. Dapagliflozin and acetazolamide will be added to standard loop diuretic therapy, and their safety profiles will be evaluated to identify potential side effects. This research seeks to provide evidence for incorporating these drugs into AHF management, with the potential to improve clinical outcomes.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is comparing two drugs — dapagliflozin (an SGLT2 inhibitor commonly used for diabetes and heart failure) and acetazolamide (a diuretic) — for removing excess fluid in hospitalized patients with acute heart failure. Both are added on top of standard IV diuretic treatment to see which works better at relieving congestion. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You are hospitalized for heart failure with significant fluid overload (swelling, weight gain, shortness of breath) - You were randomized within 24 hours of admission - Your kidney function is adequate (eGFR ≥ 30) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have Type 1 diabetes - Your blood pressure is dangerously low (systolic < 90 mmHg) - Your shortness of breath is mainly from a non-heart cause - You are in cardiogenic shock or had a recent heart attack (within 30 days) Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
