Flu season. The waiting room is full of patients. A sense of urgency and rush fills the air.
No methods at hand to differentiate between viral and bacterial sinusitis. Antibiotic treatment is prescribed to be on the safe side. Next patient.
This was the situation also in Finnish primary care in the early 1980s before ultrasound was introduced to help in the diagnosis of sinusitis. Unfortunately, in most parts of the world the situation is still the same. Over 800 million people worldwide suffer from sinusitis every year. Close to half of those affected get an unnecessary antibiotic prescription because the diagnosis is based solely on symptoms. Antibiotic resistance keeps on growing.
Our dedicated team here at Orcason Medical strives to change the situation globally to be as it is in Finland. Fast and reliable diagnosis of sinusitis using the modern Orsinus ultrasound device. Evidence-based antibiotic treatment only for those who truly need it.
Join us in our mission to permanently change the way sinusitis is diagnosed and treated.
