Evaluation of the Effects of the Sodium-glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitors+Sacubitril/Valsartan Combined Therapy in Patients With HFrEF: an Echocardiographic Study.

5428

The goal of this observational study is to investigate the effects of combination therapy with ARNI and inhibitors of SGLT2 in patients affected by HFrEF. The main questions it aims to answer are: * What is the medium-long term impact of the ARNI + glyphozine combination therapy in terms of ventricular remodeling studied by speckle tracking echocardiography (GLS%) and by variation of volumetric indices and contractile function (LVEDV, LVEDD, FE%)? * What is the medium-long term impact of the ARNI + glyphozine combination therapy in terms of variation of laboratory data indicative of heart failure (NT-pro-BNP)? * What is the medium-long term impact of the ARNI + glyphozine combination therapy in terms of major cardiovascular events (MACVE)? * What are the echocardiographic and laboratory parameters predictors of medium-long term major cardiovascular events (MACVE) and ventricular remodeling? Participants will undergo, at the time of enrollment and after approximately 3 and 12 months from the introduction of SGLT-2 inhibitor therapy, at clinical, echocardiographic and biohumoral investigations.
