T2DM patients have multiple comorbidities and frequent hospitalizations. SGLT2 inhibitors have demonstrated decreased hospitalization for heart failure vs. standard of care, but data on hospitalization for other causes are limited. The CANVAS Program randomly assigned 10,142 participants with T2DM and prior history (secondary prevention; n = 6656) or risk (primary prevention; n = 3486) for cardiovascular disease to canagliflozin (CANA) or placebo (mean follow-up, 188 week). All-cause hospitalization analyses were prespecified, but analyses of specific causes of hospitalization were not. Microvascular complications included eye, nerve, and kidney and macrovascular complications included cardiac and vascular. CANA reduced overall hospitalization (HR [95% CI]: 0.94 [0.88, 1.00]; secondary prevention: 0.91 [0.84, 0.99]; primary prevention: 1.01 [0.88, 1.15]). The most common reasons for hospitalization were infection, other, metabolism, cardiovascular, and musculoskeletal (Figure). CANA reduced hospitalization for macrovascular complications (overall: 7.98% vs. 10.63%, P &lt;0.0001; secondary prevention: 9.25% vs. 12.66%, P &lt;0.0001; primary prevention: 5.86% vs. 7.02%, P = 0.005), but not for microvascular complications (overall: 1.99% vs. 2.20%, P = NS). CANA reduced all-cause hospitalization overall and macrovascular hospitalization in both primary and secondary prevention participants.
