Abstract
Consulting an HCP during ACS extended total time duration from symptom onset to emergency department arrival. In general, patients calling an HCP experienced a less severe ACS event than patients not contacting an HCP. There is a need for an epidemiologic study of calls to HCPs to develop a protocol for ACS call management.
