Abstract
Heart Failure (HF) is a cardiovascular condition with high morbidity and mortality that conditions one of the most critical problems in public health. Despite advances in recent decades, patients continue to have major cardiovascular events and marked reduction in their quality of life. Sodium-Glucose Cotransporter Type 2 Inhibitors (SGLT2 Inhibitors) initially entered the market to treat hyperglycemia in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), however the discovery of the cardiovascular benefits in patients with HF, regardless of the presence or absence of T2DM positioned it as a new pillar in clinical management.
In this state-of-the-art review resulting from a comprehensive literature search (Medline, Cochrane and EMBASE), we describe the impact of SGLT2 Inhibitors on mortality and rehospitalizations in patients with HF and we propose a therapeutic plan for patients with HF to maximizes the benefits.

Resumen
La Insuficiencia Cardíaca (IC) es una condición cardiovascular con alta morbilidad y mortalidad que condiciona uno de los problemas más críticos en salud pública. A pesar de los avances en las últimas décadas, los pacientes continúan presentando eventos cardiovasculares importantes y una marcada reducción de su calidad de vida. Los inhibidores del cotransportador de sodio-glucosa tipo 2 (SGLT2) ingresaron inicialmente al mercado para tratar la hiperglucemia en pacientes con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 (DMT2), sin embargo, el descubrimiento de los beneficios cardiovasculares en pacientes con IC, independientemente de la presencia o ausencia de DMT2, lo posicionó como un nuevo pilar en manejo clínico.
Esta revisión de la literatura es resultante de una búsqueda bibliográfica exhaustiva (Medline, Cochrane y EMBASE), y describimos el impacto de los iSGLT2 en la mortalidad y rehospitalizaciones en pacientes con IC y proponemos un plan terapéutico para pacientes con IC para maximizar los beneficios.
