Brief summary

The PUSH Study is conceived to investigate the early effects of SGLT-2-Inhibitors on the physical performance of patients with Type-II-Diabetes mellitus compared to patients under other therapy regimes. Patients shall be divided into 3 groups: I - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus under new treatment with an SGLT2-Inhibitor. II - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus without SGLT-2- Inhibitor medication. III - Patients without type II diabetes mellitus but with similar comorbidities to the previous groups.

Detailed description

SGLT-2-Inhibitors have been shown to improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with type II diabetes mellitus. Present evidence shows this effect to be not directly related to better serum glucose levels because the effect was measurable within several days of initiation of the treatment. In a prospective single-centre double-blinded comparative observational study, other aspects of the effect of SGLT-2-Inhibitors shall be analyzed from patient registry, particularly the physical performance of patients under new treatment with SGLT-2-Inhibitors. Patient consent will be sort for the analysis of clinical data during the duration of stay. Patients included in the registry suitable for analysis shall be divided into 3 groups: I - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus under new treatment with an SGLT2-Inhibitor. II - Patients with type II diabetes mellitus without SGLT-2- Inhibitor medication. III - Patients without type II diabetes mellitus but with similar comorbidities to the previous groups.
