AbstractAmplitude spectrum area (AMSA) is one of the most accurate predictors of defibrillation outcome. Details on functioning and use of the available technology to measure AMSA during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the real clinical scenario are described. During chest compression (CC) pauses for ventilations, AMSA is promptly calculated and values displayed through a modified defibrillator. In addition, real-time AMSA analysis has the additional promise to monitor CPR quality, being AMSA threshold values contingent on CC depth. Future larger studies employing this new technology are now needed to demonstrate the impact of AMSA on survival of cardiac arrest.Copyright © 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
