First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether dapagliflozin, a diabetes medication, can reduce the amount of time people with diabetes spend in atrial fibrillation (an irregular heart rhythm). About 28 adults with both conditions will wear a heart monitor and complete quality-of-life surveys. The goal is to see if the drug lowers AF burden and improves well-being over three months.
