Now diagnostics of a paroxysmal form of atrial fibrillation remains an important problem. The real prevalence of atrial fibrillation can be strongly underestimated, including due to its «silent» character. The existing technologies for atrial fibrillation screening including Holter-monitoring have no high sensitivity, difficult and also cannot be widely used in population. In this regard the special relevance by the mobile medical technologies which are not demanding a visit to the doctor is acquired. In this article the overview of modern technologies of screening disturbances of a heart rhythm by means of registration of the single-channel ECG by the smartphone and its subsequent analysis by means of modern mathematical algorithms is provided.
