ExtendedCare Cloud vs EVD educational toolkit

Welcome to today’s most personalized, clinically-integrated virtual healthcare. ExtendedCare Telehealth™ is today’s most configurable and clinically-integrated telehealth solution, offering a smooth digital care experience for patients, enhanced clinical workflows for providers, and reduced workloads for administrators. While some care will always need to be delivered in person, we believe everything else can be delivered virtually. In fact, it already is. FOLLOW THESE TIPS FOR A GREAT VIDEO CALL WITH YOUR DOCTOR: 1. Ensure you have a strong wifi signal and are not relying on mobile data for a connection. 2. Before your visit, test your connection by navigating to the app’s home screen and clicking the “Self-Test” button. This test will show you the strength of your audio and video connections. 3. Close all other video-based applications before joining a visit. (e.g., Zoom, WhatsApp, Messenger, Google Duo, etc.) With ExtendedCare, telehealth is more than just a video visit. Our purpose-built, healthcare-focused solution seamlessly integrates with your patient health records and enriches the caregiving experience with digital content and workflows. Bottom line? You have much more to look forward to beyond a video visit. No longer do you need to drive to the doctor, sit in a drab waiting room, or remain disconnected from your care journey. Instead, you can enjoy interactive waiting room content from the comfort of your home, breeze through electronic consent forms in a few clicks, chat with providers before and during a visit, and invite guests in real-time to a consultation. As for your providers, no longer do they need to spend countless hours on paperwork, wait to consult specialists on a case, or waste time waiting for patients who can’t connect to a visit. Instead, they can annotate medical images in real-time, save media directly to EHR, add specialists and other guests via email or text, chat with patients and fellow providers, and triage patients in the waiting room.

EVD educational toolkit is a clinician-facing reference on external ventricular drains (EVDs) and intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring, designed for neuro-ICU and neuroanesthesia teams, nurses, and trainees. WHAT'S INSIDE • What is an EVD? Definition, common indications, and epidemiology • EVD Setup: leveling at the external auditory meatus, transducer safety, and drainage settings used in practice • ICP Waveforms: normal and abnormal P1/P2/P3 morphology with real bedside tracings • CT Imaging: expected catheter position and imaging examples • Transport & MRI Safety: a pre-transport checklist and MRI safety steps • Best Practices: do's and don'ts and CSF color interpretation • Clinical Pearls: concise, referenced teaching points • Types of EVD and EVD Systems: a photo library of devices and drainage systems • QI Metrics and EHR Alerts: suggested quality metrics, reportable events, and an example institutional EHR workflow • Educational videos, downloadable resources, and materials from the SNACC EVD Safety Campaign REFERENCED CONTENT Clinical content in the app is linked to published sources, including the SNACC perioperative guidelines for external ventricular and lumbar drains and the Neurocritical Care Society EVD consensus statement, with direct links to PubMed. Where content reflects one institution's practice rather than published evidence, the app says so. EDUCATIONAL USE ONLY This app is an educational resource. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose or recommend treatment for individual patients, and does not replace clinical judgment, institutional protocols, or manufacturer instructions. The app has no accounts and does not collect patient information. RESEARCH STUDY This app is part of a research study evaluating clinical implementation of the EVD Toolkit. The University of Washington Human Subjects Division reviewed the study and determined it exempt from further IRB review (STUDY00026573, approved 9/16/2026). Participation in the optional feedback survey is voluntary. Developed at the University of Washington.
