This study is to provide the effectiveness and safety evidence in patients with heart failure of reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) initiating Jardiance in real clinical practice in a larger Chinese population.
The primary objective is to compare the risk of the composite outcome of cardiovascular (CV) death or hospitalisation for heart failure (HHF) in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) patients initiating Jardiance with propensity score (PS) matched HFrEF patients initiating guideline-recommended non-sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) medications (angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (ACEi)/angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB)/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), betablockers, and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA)) in China, measured by the hazard ratio of the two groups.
