Abstract
In the management of acute coronary syndrome (ACS), providing the best and most equitable care to all patients is a major challenge. Clinical studies pinpoint the areas of pre-hospital and hospital care that need improvement. In Serbia, problems relate to timely ACS symptoms recognition, time to first medical contact, diagnostic accuracy, and rehabilitation. "Digital Health" (DH) can aid in resolving these issues. In this mini-review, several digital health interventions are suggested as ways to improve ACS patient care.
