  Fig. 1. Presentation of mobile health devices and their sensitivity and specificity considering 12-lead electrocardiogram as the gold standard. This figure summarizes the literature as performed in this systematic review. Sensitivity and specificity range were given when an mHealth solution was clinically validated by > 1 study. *Single-lead electrocardiogram as the gold standard; **24-h Holter monitoring as the gold standard. ECG electrocardiography, MCG mechanocardiography, PPG photoplethysmography
