Rhythm Analysis during Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: Past, Present, and Future

Figure 2

Two examples in the time and frequency domain of CPR artifacts recorded in OHCA patients in asystole. The figures show the ECG in mV and the normalized power spectral density (PSD) in the frequency domain. The first example has pauses in chest compressions, a rate of 133 cpm (2.22 Hz), and small harmonic content. The second example has no pauses, a rate of 116 cpm (1.93 Hz), and large harmonic content.
