Overview
Chronic heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome with a diverse and often combined aetiology. Due to the results of clinical trials with SGLT2 inhibitors showing a decrease in mortality and hospitalizations for HF in diabetic patients with high cardiovascular risk, the attention of endocrinologists is focused not only on the glycaemic control but also on the evaluation of the patient’s cardiovascular risk profile. Until now, interest in cardiovascular risk factors has focused mainly on risk of atherosclerotic vasoocclusive events. However, the results of the clinical trials suggest a high prevalence and mortality for heart failure in patients with diabetes. In this article, we provide basic information on the classification, clinical presentation, diagnosis, prognosis, and management of chronic HF. We hope the paper will be helpful for diabetologists and endocrinologists for decisions in patients referral for more detailed cardiologic evaluation, as well as for choosing the optimal pharmacotherapy for type II diabetes mellitus.
