Official title
The Effect of Sodium Glucose Co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)-Inhibitors on Sleep Disordered Breathing in Heart Failure Patients
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Heart Failure is a disease involving many different aspects of the human body, including changes in metabolism, the way the body produces and uses energy. Research shows that patients with heart failure often have a sleep disorder called sleep disordered breathing (SDB). It has been shown that SDB is associated with poor outcomes in heart failure patients, but the exact reason is unknown. It is likely that SDB leads to changes in metabolism and hormone status in the body, which is especially dangerous for heart failure patients. There is currently no treatment for SDB in heart failure patients. Recently, with Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2)-Inhibitors a new drug class has been approved for the treatment of advanced heart failure. This drug has effects on the metabolism in heart failure patients, among several other effects. This research project has the aim to investigate if SGLT2 inhibitors can help in the treatment of SDB, as many mechanisms of the drug overlap with the mechanisms how SDB develops. The drug has been approved by the FDA for the treatment of heart failure. The investigators want to study the effect of the drug on SDB by using a home sleep test called Watchpat, which has been approved to diagnose SDB.
