Handtevy Cardiac Management App Quiz

Study Notes

Handtevy provides a modern solution that replaces the traditional Broselow tape for emergency pediatric care.
The application is pre-installed on every Sonim phone, designed to facilitate cardiac arrest management.
Key features include tracking time, medication, and dosages; all information is sent to the Electronic Patient Care Report (EPCR).
The app allows for practice without complications, ensuring familiarity with its functions.

To begin, open the Handtevy app and add a new patient.
Estimate the patient's size; for adults, weight in pounds (lbs) is divided by 2.2 for conversion to kilograms (kg).
Initiate CPR by clicking the continuous button; the default is set to a 30:2 compression-to-ventilation ratio.
A precharge sound alerts users at the 1:45 mark to prepare the defibrillator monitor.
Utilize the metronome feature by clicking the speaker icon once the Lucas device is attached.

Conduct a pulse check and access defibrillation options; choose between "no shock" or "shock" along with appropriate joules.
Restart the precharge timer after selecting shock.
Use the Epi Button to administer either IV or IO epinephrine; the app offers a preloaded weight-based dose.
A timer begins, turning orange at the 3-minute mark for the next dose; the total number of doses is displayed in parentheses.
Administer one dose every 4 minutes, up to 4 doses (additional doses may be given with Return of Spontaneous Circulation - ROSC).

The bottom row includes options for medications, drips, equipment, and electrical interventions; all entries are auto-populated with weight-based dosages per protocol.
Select "AirTraq" from the equipment list to assist with intubation; if video laryngoscopy (VL) is performed, recording and auditing are mandatory to evaluate the first-attempt pass rate.
To stop CPR, select the appropriate patient outcome in the top right corner of the app.
A blue box with a carrot icon allows users to upload data; check the box on the next screen and hit submit.
Submitted information is sent to the cloud for EPCR download, preserving patient care documentation.
