If the tendons of the fingers extensors are in evidence, there is still effort. Usually there will be an
evolution leading to the relaxation, as the user continuously works with the Dr. Segalle ORTHOMOUSE.
FULL ELIMINATION OF THE AFOREMENTIONED SIGNS OF EFFORT SHOULD BE ACHIEVED BEFORE
EVALUATION OF THE COMFORT LEVEL AND USABILITY.
This is the logical way to avoid RSI disorders and to work with comfort and safety.

Accessories
The accessories accompanying the ORTHOMOUSE (three adapters and two upper adapters) make it
possible to assemble six different combinations of shape and size in a do-it-yourself manner, so that it
adapts perfectly to the shape, size and function of your hand.
The adapters for the palm of the hand
The user should try the adapters for the palm of the hand (short, medium and long) to see which one
suits the hand best. Note that the short adapter, unlike the other two, allows the hand’s hypothenar
eminence (see Fig. 3) to be supported by the work desk. This is a characteristic preferred by many
designers and/or users who perform precision tasks. Thus, even among users with large hands, some
will prefer to use the shorter adapter. Users that wish to suppress the lateral displacements of the
forearm and/or reduce the hand displacement as much as possible should use the smaller extensor in
order to achieve support of the hypothenar eminence on the work surface, which is then used as a pivot
during lateral movements with minimum displacement (see Fig. 4).
