Effect of Empagliflozin on Quality of Life in patient of Chronic Heart Failure with Diabetes Mellitus Type II. As per ESC Guidelines Empagliflozin is recommended as part of the first-line treatment for HFrEF, irrespective of diabetes status. As per American College of Cardiology (ACC)/American Heart Association (AHA) Empagliflozin is recommended in both diabetic and non-diabetic HF (especially beneficial in patients with HFrEF and HFpEF). The aim of my study is to assess the impact of Empagliflozin on quality of life in Pakistani patients, considering the genetic, environmental and cultural factors. The study will also explore whether Empagliflozin can offer cost-effective option for managing chronic heart failure and diabetes, potentially reducing the economic burden on both patients and health care system.
