Study Notes
Handtevy Overview
- Handtevy is a mobile app designed to aid in pediatric care, but has evolved to assist with most patients.
- It's a modern solution to the old Broselow tape.
Accessing the App
- Handtevy is pre-loaded on every Sonim phone and already logged in.
- To access the app, go to the home screen and find the Handtevy icon.
Getting Started
- Click "ADD A NEW PATIENT" to begin.
- Choose the patient's size (initially designed for pediatrics, but can be used for adults).
- For adults, estimate their size (e.g., 100 KG = 220 LBS, 75 KG = 165 LBS).
Main Treatment Screen
- Select the patient's size and click "Start CPR".
- The main treatment screen appears, with options for compression ratio, metronome, and more.
Compression Ratio
- Defaults to 30:2, but can be changed to continuous by clicking the "continuous" box.
Metronome
- The metronome is helpful during manual compressions, but can be distracting when using the LUCAS device.
- Click the speaker icon to toggle off the metronome.
Defibrillation
- The top right button is for defibrillation, which helps on scene and records data.
- At the pulse check, press defibrillation to start the timer for the 1 min 45 sec pre-charge sound.
Epi Button
- The Epi button starts a counter and timer, with the dose pre-loaded based on weight.
- Select the route as IV or IO based on the ALS clinician's setup.
- The timer turns orange at 3 minutes to prepare for the next epinephrine administration.
Documentation
- The bottom row of the app has tabs for documenting medications, med drips, equipment, and electrical interventions.
- These are loaded in from the protocols and set up based on the chosen weight.
Intubation
- The app allows for documentation of intubations, which is required by protocol.
- The video laryngoscope (VL) is used for most intubations, and the video is reviewed and attached to the ePCR.
- The video helps with training, documentation, and system improvement.
