Rates of diabetic ketoacidosis with empagliflozin use during hospitalization for acute heart failure
AbstractThere is concern that sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors during hospitalization for acute heart failure (aHF) may precipitate diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A retrospective study of all hospitalization encounters for aHF defined by a primary HF International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10 code in 15 Kaiser Permanente Southern California medical cente rs hospitalized between January 1, 2021 and August 31, 2023 was performed to describe rates of DKA with empagliflozin use.
