HandDecide 1.0

Welcome to HandDecide™!

HandDecide is Orca’s newest medical app in the Decide Series. It is a physician-based medical app designed to provide easy access to information, discussion, and current scientifically recommended treatment for common hand and wrist conditions. HandDecide goes beyond all previous Orca apps in its introduction of full 3D anatomical motion simulation.

VIEW hand and wrist motion in 360 degrees. EXPLORE anatomy layer by layer from outer skin to muscle to bone. PINPOINT your medical condition in a range of common hand and wrist conditions through detailed MRI scans. LEARN about treatment processes, and LOCATE specialists near you in easy to understand listings. Then SHARE your findings with friends and family through the app’s email feature or video out capability, which allows any Orca app to be connected to a larger screen or monitor.

The purpose of Orca’s series of Decide apps is to educate the non-medically trained patient about their medical problems. The Decide Series aims to enhance understanding of common conditions of the body while answering in an informed, practical guide which conditions may require surgical treatment. After you have been referred for an MRI and are exiting the imaging center with image in hand, you are met with a barrage of treatment options that can be overwhelming. For patients suffering from bodily pain, an effective and timely treatment is crucial to regaining and maintaining a high quality of life, but how can you make sense of so much information?

The Decide Medical App Series presents valuable guides for patients as they seek to understand and find the most effective treatments for their medical problems. The user can scroll through and examine easy to understand anatomical explanations as well as MRI scans of common conditions.
