Authoritative AnswersFrequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Direct clinical, architectural, and compliance answers regarding zero-PHI safety, 34 bedside calculators, offline database reliability, and shift handoffs.
What is My Carry: Ward & ICU Rounds and how does it assist hospital ward rounds?
My Carry: Ward & ICU Rounds is an offline-first shift companion and clinical follow-through platform built specifically for hospital ward and ICU clinicians (doctors, residents, fellows, and nurses). It streamlines bedside task capture in under 3 seconds, enables real-time team board coordination, provides 43+ validated clinical calculators, ages pending lab investigations on a Results Radar, and generates a structured, zero-PHI shift handoff in one tap.
How does the 3-step bedside shift workflow work?
Follow the proven shift process designed by hospital clinicians for morning ward rounds, critical care, and evening sign-out: Step 01 · Bedside Capture records STAT orders, specialty chips, and patient tasks in under 3 seconds. Step 02 · Closed-Loop Turnaround tracks pending labs, CXRs, and blood cultures on an active TAT Results Radar. Step 03 · 1-Tap Zero-PHI Shift Handoff auto-formats structured SBAR sign-out summaries for WhatsApp or EHR notes without typing.
How does My Carry compare to manual paperwork and EHRs?
Ward rounds require extreme speed, offline capability, and rigorous privacy. Compared to paper census sheets, sticky notes, and clunky desktop EHR terminals, My Carry enables sub-3s task capture, 100% offline-first local SQLite encryption, built-in bedside calculators (Wells, CURB-65, SOFA), active Turnaround Time (TAT) lab aging alerts, real-time multi-clinician peer board sync, and 1-tap de-identified SBAR handoff export.
Which clinical modules streamline ward rounds and ICU handoffs?
Each module is designed with tactile elevation, high-contrast readability, and frictionless sub-second workflows: Core Board for STAT task capture and live patient census; Calculators for 43+ zero-PHI bedside clinical scores; Results Radar for closed-loop lab and imaging turnaround aging; Handoff for 1-tap de-identified shift sign-out; Discharge for 5-step mistake-proof discharge safety gates; and Unit for real-time clinician team and roster synchronization.
How does My Carry protect patient health information (Zero-PHI) under HIPAA and DPDPA 2023?
My Carry enforces strict data minimisation under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA 2023) and HIPAA. The app records bed numbers and initials only (e.g., ICU-04 M.K.), never storing full patient names, national IDs, UHIDs, or MRNs. Voice matching and analytics execute strictly on-device with zero audio storage or cloud exposure, and all local databases are encrypted with AES-256 at rest.
How does My Carry guarantee Zero-PHI and DPDPA compliance?
My Carry enforces data minimisation at the database and UI layer — zero patient names, zero unencrypted cloud transfer. 01 Data Minimisation: Records bed numbers and initials only (e.g., ICU-04 M.K.). 02 On-Device Processing: Voice matching and calculations run strictly on device silicon. 03 Stale-Write Protection: Optimistic concurrency stops accidental task overwrites. 04 Instant Erasure Rights: One-tap shift purging permanently clears local patient data.
What bedside clinical calculators and severity scores are included in v1.3.2?
Release v1.3.2 features 43+ point-of-care clinical calculators executed directly on device with zero cloud transmission: Wells DVT/PE, CURB-65, NEWS2, SOFA, qSOFA, NIHSS, CHA2DS2-VASc, HAS-BLED, MELD-Na, Child-Pugh, KDIGO AKI staging, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), PaO2/FiO2 ratio, Centor, GBS, and Opioid & Steroid Equivalence.
Does My Carry work 100% offline without hospital Wi-Fi or cellular connectivity?
Yes. My Carry: Ward & ICU Rounds is 100% offline-first. All patient tasks, checklists, and calculators operate locally in an encrypted on-device database, ensuring seamless ward rounds even in shielded basement ICUs. When connectivity is available, changes synchronize peer boards in the background with conflict-free stale-write protection.
How does 1-tap shift handoff work with WhatsApp and hospital EHRs?
At shift completion, My Carry auto-formats an SBAR-style clinical sign-out structured by bed, highlighting overdue investigations, critical tasks, and discharge milestones. It can be copied directly or exported to WhatsApp, SMS, or hospital EHR notes with zero clinician typing and zero PHI risk.
Does voice capture record or upload patient audio to any server?
No. My Carry uses on-device neural voice token matching running exclusively on the phone processor. Zero audio recordings or transcriptions are stored, saved, or uploaded to any external server.
Is My Carry: Ward & ICU Rounds intended to replace hospital Electronic Medical Records (EMRs)?
No. My Carry is a personal clinical task companion and bedside cognitive decision aid, not an Electronic Medical Record (EMR/EHR). It is designed to bridge the high-friction gap between bedside patient rounds and terminal charting, helping clinicians track real-time shift tasks, manage lab turnaround times, and eliminate cognitive fatigue.
How can hospital departments, chief medical officers, or clinicians contact the My Carry team?
Clinicians, department heads, and hospital IT leadership can reach the My Carry clinical development team directly at hello@mycarry.app or submit an inquiry through our Contact page. My Carry is developed and governed by Axiom Minds Private Limited.
