Chronic Coronary Syndrome (CCS) significantly impacts quality of life and increases the risk of adverse cardiovascular events, remaining the leading cause of mortality worldwide. The use of sensor technology in medicine is emerging as a promising approach to enhance the management and monitoring of patients across a wide range of diseases. Recent advancements in engineering and nanotechnology have enabled the development of ultra-small devices capable of collecting data on critical physiological parameters. Several sensors integrated in wearable and implantable devices, instruments for exhaled gas analysis, smart stents and tools capable of real time biochemical analysis have been developed, and some of them have demonstrated to be effective in CCS management. Their application in CCS could provide valuable insights into disease progression, ischemic events, and patient responses to therapy. Moreover, sensor technologies can support the personalization of treatment plans, enable early detection of disease exacerbations, and facilitate prompt interventions, potentially reducing the need for frequent hospital visits and unnecessary invasive diagnostic procedures such as coronary angiography. This review explores sensor integration in CCS care, highlighting technological advances, clinical potential, and implementation challenges.
