In this episode, Dr. James Januzzi and Dr. Silvio Inzucchi discuss the surge in collaboration between primary care physicians, endocrinologists, and cardiologists and the groundswell of cardiometabolic clinics. They attribute this to cardiologists moving beyond the so-called glucocentric view and focusing on how diabetes therapies might help reduce cardiovascular risk as well. Drs. Januzzi and Inzucchi will also discuss the recent guidelines that now incorporate sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors into clinical pathways.
