Summary

This trial is testing a strategy to assess and prevent heart failure in high-risk patients. It involves using risk scores and a cardiac biomarker along with a support tool to guide intensive prevention efforts.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for people with Type 2 Diabetes who are at risk of developing heart failure. Participants should not have a current diagnosis of heart failure but must be considered high-risk based on specific clinical scores and biomarkers.
What is being tested?
The study tests whether using a special prevention strategy that includes regular health checks, risk assessments, and treatments can help prevent heart failure in high-risk diabetes patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves an intensive prevention strategy rather than a specific medication, side effects may vary widely depending on the individual treatments used within the strategy.
