    Abstract

    The digital technology interventions helps in improving medication compliance, facilitating regular follow-up, and addressing healthy behavioural factors in patients with coronary artery disease. By integrating digital tools into healthcare delivery, providers can enhance patient engagement, promote adherence to treatment regimens, and enable early detection of adverse events. The integration of digital technology with cardiac rehabilitation programs holds potential for transforming the healthcare system into a more sustainable1 and patient-centered model. Digital platforms can enhance access to cardiac rehabilitation services, facilitate remote monitoring, and personalize interventions based on individual patient needs, ultimately improving clinical outcomes and quality of life. However, while digital technology has shown promise in certain aspects of cardiovascular care, such as medication adherence and follow-up, its impact on reducing unhealthy behaviours like alcohol consumption, smoking, and unhealthy diet may be limited2. Despite efforts to integrate digital interventions, addressing these modifiable risk factors remains challenging and may require comprehensive, multifaceted approaches that extend beyond digital technology alone. As the field of digital health continues to evolve, there is a growing need for additional research and development to harness the full potential of technology in healthcare facilities. Collaboration between researchers, clinicians, policymakers, and technology developers will be critical in driving forward progress and ensuring that digital interventions effectively address the evolving needs of patients with acute coronary artery disease and other cardiovascular conditions.
