    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.
