Link between diabetes medicines and outcomes after pacemaker surgery in type 2 diabetes patients

Updated

Abstract

Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) experience persistent heart failure (HF) after pacemaker implantation.

  • The impact of contemporary glucose-lowering therapies on clinical outcomes in this context remains unclear.
  • Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) are of particular interest.
  • The study examines the individual and combined effects of SGLT2i and GLP-1RA therapies on outcomes following pacemaker implantation.
