Summary
This study tests whether Empagliflozin (Jardiance), a drug already used for heart failure, can help adults with congenital heart disease whose heart function has recently declined. About 40 participants will take the drug and be monitored for changes in heart pumping strength, exercise ability, and inflammation. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve heart health and reduce hospitalizations.
