The Diabetic Heart: A Focus on Heart Failure

In this webinar we will first provide a high level review of the medical underpinnings of the diabetic heart particularly as it relates to heart failure. Understanding the structural, metabolic and functional associations of T2D will help us to better understand how some molecular classes could lead to benefits in CV outcomes while others may be detrimental. Next we will review the recent literature in the treatment of the diabetic heart and consider where the underlying pathophysiology and clinical trial results could lead to future innovations in the pharmacotherapy of diabetic heart failure. We will address trial designs in diabetic heart failure and opportunities for innovation.
