The objective of our study was to examine the effectiveness of an electrocardiographic predictor, amplitude spectral area (AMSA), for the optimal timing of defibrillation shocks in human victims of cardiac arrest. Based on the spectral characteristics of ventricular fibrillation potentials, we examined the probability of successful conversion to an organized viable rhythm, including the return of spontaneous circulation. The incentive was to predict the likelihood of successful defibrillation and thereby improve outcomes by minimizing interruptions in chest compression and minimizing electrically induced myocardial injury due to repetitive high-current shocks.
