A multidisciplinary approach—from cardiology to nursing to pharmacy—shows what’s possible when we work together.

The result? A jump in SGLT2i prescribing rates and more holistic post-AMI care!

These findings will reshape how care teams educate and manage patients with HF—allowing us to shift focus from fluid limits to the underlying drivers of decompensation that truly impact outcomes.

FRESH-UP at #ACC25: No benefit to fluid restriction in HF. No harm with liberal intake. Improved QOL with more fluid freedom.

Supports what we have long suspected—and may help shift the standard of care moving forward.

MIGHTy-Heart took on gaps in HF care transitions.

✴️ 2,003 enrolled → MIH vs. TOCC
✴️ No difference in 30-day outcomes
✴️ Younger patients & women saw more benefit.
