Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Recent cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) have established sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1 RA) as powerful medications that can lower glucose as well as reduce the risk of complications of CVD in many individuals with T2D. The combination of glycemic and cardiovascular benefits of SGLT2i and GLP1 RA has highlighted the importance of collaborative care of patients by diabetes and cardiovascular specialists. We review several models of cardiometabolic care for patients with diabetes and CVD and discuss practical ways in which diabetes and cardiovascular specialists can work together to improve cardiometabolic care. RECENT FINDINGS: CVOTs for SGLT2i and GLP1 RA have demonstrated a significant reduction in major adverse cardiovascular events in individuals with T2D and CVD, in addition to their beneficial effects on glucose lowering and weight loss. Additionally, several models of care, including population health screening models with or without a remote management intervention, multidisciplinary clinics, and combined cardiometabolic training, have been proposed to better facilitate the multifaceted care that individuals with diabetes and CVD require. Innovative models of cardiometabolic care have the potential to improve the quality of care that individuals with diabetes and CVD receive. Through collaboration and co-management, diabetes specialists, cardiovascular specialists, and primary care providers have the ability to optimize diabetes and cardiovascular care.
