Abstract

AIMS: The aim of this study was to perform an external validation of an automatic machine learning (ML) algorithm for heart rhythm diagnostics using smartphone photoplethysmography (PPG) recorded by patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFL) pericardioversion in an unsupervised ambulatory setting.
