Emergency medical providers are responsible for performing critical procedures with little or no advance notice. However, some of these procedures rarely occur, and they are sometimes called "high acuity low occurrence" (HALO) procedures. With the HALO Practice skill, medical professionals can stay proficient at these procedures by mentally rehearsing them with Alexa.
HOW DOES IT WORK? Just ask your Alexa to open HALO Practice. You can ask to practice a specific procedure or ask Alexa to read you a list of available procedures.
WHAT PROCEDURES ARE AVAILABLE? Lateral canthotomy Transvenous pacing Cricothyrotomy Needle cricothyrotomy Pericardiocentesis Resuscitative hysterotomy Thoracotomy Newborn delivery
