Stress Cardiac Magnetic Resonance of Asymptomatic Type 2 Diabetics with Cardiovascular High Risk to Measure Empagliflozin Impact on Myocardial Blood Flow (CATCH-EM)

Summary

The study design is a double blinded randomised control trial study that aims to conduct a randomised controlled trial of empagliflozin and determine if empagliflozin will improve myocardial blood flow in asymptomatic high risk type 2 diabetic patients. Also, to determine a cut-off using maximum upslope ratio and myocardial perfusion reserve index in which patients would demonstrate an improvement in myocardial blood flow.
