2 ways to become famous in cardiology: 1) Work hard, contribute something meaningful 2) Hope that your name is serendipitously chosen as the acronym for a large clinical study #ESCCongress @BrighamFellows

In-hospital initiation of #dapagliflozin led to modest but significant improvements across multiple measures of congestion within 1 week that were sustained through 2 months. Diuretic efficiency progressively improved through 2 months jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jchf.… #ESCCongress #JACCHF

Starting SGLT2 Inhibitors in the Hospital for Acute HF Gains Support

DAPA ACT HF – TIMI 68 missed its primary endpoint, but experts say the totality of the evidence backs early use of the drugs.

Although DAPA ACT HF-TIMI 68 on SGLT-2 I in AHF is formally a "negative" trial, overall survival and subsequent meta-analytic data confirm the need for early flozination in HF patients @ddbergMD ahajournals.org/doi/abs/10.1…

1/ In this #SimPub paper in @CircAHA from #ESCCongress, Berg et al report the findings of the DAPA ACT HF-TIMI 68 trial that investigated the efficacy & safety of in-hospital initiation of dapagliflozin in pts hospitalized for HF Here's a summary🧵 🔗bit.ly/3HyAHEg

🚨 Hot Line 2 at #ESCCongress: DAPA ACT HF results are out! 🔹 No significant reduction in CV death or worsening HF at 2 months 🔹 Overall data still support early SGLT2i use 🔹 Safety profile consistent @escardio @ddbergMD @TIMIStudyGroup

ESC Congress Madrid 2025 HOT LINE 2 30 August from 08:15 to 09:45 Rationale and Design of the Dapagliflozin Effect on Cardiovascular Events in Acute Heart Failure (DAPA ACT HF)-TIMI 68 Trial Optimizing guideline-directed chronic HF therapies during HF hospitalization can improve postdischarge outcomes. Limited data exist regarding the efficacy and safety of initiating SGLT2is in hospitalized patients with HF. DAPA ACT HF-TIMI 68 is a cardiovascular outcomes trial evaluating the initiation of dapagliflozin vs placebo in patients hospitalized for the management of acute HF. The trial has enrolled a high proportion of patients with de novo HF, Black race, and those treated with an angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.jchf.…
