Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1) A person who understands the research protocol and has completed a written consent form 2) adult men and women over the age of 20 3) a patient with severe tricuspid valve regurgitation (1) Even in conventional drug treatment, if Vena contacta > 0.7 cm or effective reflux area =40 mm2 for more than 1 month (2) a patient with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 40% or more* (3) Persons with dyspnea of function classification II or higher by the New York Heart Association (NYHA)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1) Severe mitral valve or aortic valve disease 2) Left ventricular ejection fraction less than 40%* 3) In case of severe pulmonary hypertension (TR Vmax > 4m/s) 4) Acute heart failure or dyspnea above NYHA functional class IV 5) Systolic blood pressure below 90 mmHg 6) Severe lung disease (asthma, obstructive pulmonary disease, acute pulmonary arterial embolism) 7) Estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30ml/min/1.73m2 or on dialysis 8) Type 1 diabetes 9) Pregnancy or lactation 10) If MRI imaging is not possible (fear of loss in case of undergoing Pacemaker or defibrillator or insertion of a metal prosthesis or Claustrophobia) 11) In case of liver disease, AST or ALT values are more than twice the upper limit of normal, history of hepatic coma, history of esophageal varices, and history of Portocaval shunt/anastomosis 12) A person whose life expectancy is less than one year 13) If SGLT-2 inhibitors are already being administered 14) In case of hypersensitivity to SGLT2 inhibitors 15) Other persons deemed unsuitable by the tester to participate in this clinical trial * Evidence for setting patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction of 40% or higher as the selection criteria and setting patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40% as the exclusion criteria: If there is a decrease in left ventricular contractile function, functional tricuspid valve reflux may be accompanied by a decrease in left ventricular function, and in this case, in order to reduce tricuspid valve reflux, it is a category that requires treatment for the cause of left ventricular dysfunction, so patients who fall under this category are excluded from the study. To this end, patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction of less than 40% are excluded in accordance with the definition of left ventricular contractile dysfunction.
