@elena_gribaudo @AlsaiedTarek @8thWCPCCS2023 @HviUpmc @ChildrensPgh @ahoskoppal Same experience here. 40% tolerate lowest dose and only 11% tolerate max ARNi. 90% tolerated SGLT2i. Statistical improvement in LVEF and RV strain with GDMT. Thanks

@mudphudheart @AlsaiedTarek @8thWCPCCS2023 @HviUpmc @ChildrensPgh @ahoskoppal Very interesting! In your opinion are the sglt2-i more effective on the systemic right or left ventricle? In my practice pts with systemic right ventricle failure tolerate poorly ARNI, instead tolerate well sglt2-i Thank you!

Practical implementation and efficacy of ARNi and SGLT2i in ACHD patients by our fellow Carley Bright. SGLT2i are better tolerated and GDMT improved ventricular parameters @8thWCPCCS2023 @HviUpmc @ChildrensPgh @AlsaiedTarek @ahoskoppal
