Course overview
TytoCare brings physical exams into a virtual care workflow. This course covers how to prepare the Tyto device, capture clinically useful exam data, and support a patient before and during a remote clinician visit.
You’ll move from the basic setup, through each Tyto exam type, and then into the full app workflow so you understand how the pieces work together during patient care.
Learn by doing
Work through realistic Tyto workflows and see how the device, app, and clinical process connect.
5 to 10 minutes each
Most lessons take 5–10 minutes. You can complete them separately and return whenever you need a refresher.
No patient needed
A Tyto device is optional, but having one nearby can be helpful during the exam lessons.
Getting started
Understand the TytoCare setup before a patient visit. Learn what the device and attachments are used for, how the device connects to the app, and what needs to be ready before you begin.
Welcome to TytoCare
How TytoCare adds physical exam data to virtual care, and how the device, attachments, app, and remote clinician work together.
Pair your Tyto device
How the Tyto device connects to the app, what a successful connection looks like, and what to check before starting a visit.
Enterprise Wi-Fi setup
How Tyto connects in environments that use managed or certificate-based Wi-Fi.
For IT and site leadsConducting Tyto exams
Each Tyto exam captures a different type of clinical information. These lessons focus on how to position the device and patient, what makes a useful capture, and when an exam should be repeated.
Temperature exam
How to position the thermometer and capture a reliable temperature reading.
Ear exam
How to position the patient and otoscope to capture a clear view of the eardrum.
Throat exam
How to position and frame the throat so the clinician receives a clear view.
Skin exam
How distance, focus, and framing affect the clinical usefulness of a skin image.
Heart exam
Where to capture heart sounds and how to reduce noise during recording.
Lung exam
Where to capture lung sounds and how to collect clear recordings from the required positions.
Using the Tyto app
This section follows the patient workflow in the app, from opening the correct patient record through preparing the visit and supporting the clinician live.
Add a patient
Create a patient record when one does not already exist and confirm the information needed to begin care.
Select a patient
Find the correct patient and start the visit from the right record.
Visit intake
Prepare the patient for the visit by connecting the device, collecting relevant exam data and measurements, and setting up the visit before the clinician joins.
Online visit
Support the patient during a clinician-led virtual visit and perform Tyto exams as they are requested.
