5 Models of Osteopathic Care

QuestionAnswer
what is the osteopathic approach to patient care? use of the 4 tenets of Osteopathy 1. human being is a dynamic unit of function 2. body has self-regulatory (homeostatic) mechanisms that are self-healing in nature 3. structure & function are interrelated 4. rational treatment is based on these princi
what are the 5 Basic integrative & coordinated body functions & coping strategies? 1. posture & motion 2. gross & cellular respiratory & circulatory factors 3. metabolic processes 4. neurologic integration 5. psychosocial, cultural, behavioral and spiritual elements
what are the 5 models of osteopathic care? 1. biomechanical 2. respiratory-circulatory 3. metabolic 4. neurological 5. behavioral
what comprises the Biomechanical Model? Structure (anatomy): bones, muscles & Function (physiology): coordination and symmetry of musculoskeletal & myofascial structures in posture & motion
what is the goal of addressing the biomechanical model? improve function by addressing problems in myofascial connective tissues & bony & soft tissues to remove restrictive forces & enhance motion.. accomplished w/use of OMT
what comprises the Respiratory-Circulatory model? structure: thoracic inlet, thoracic & pelvic diaphragms, costal cage, tenotium cerebelli function: respiration, circulation, venous & lymphatic drainage
what is the goal of treating respiratory-circulatory model? to improve all of the diaphragm restrictions in the body. diaphragms are transverse restrictors of motion, venous & lymph drainage & csf
which OMT techniques best improve respiratory-circulatory function? cranial field techniques ligamentous articular strain myofascial release lymphatic pump HVLA & MET for spinal somatic dysfunction at transition zones
which OMT techniques best improve biomechanical function? HVLA muscle energy counterstrain myofascial release ligamentous articular & functional techniques (wide range)
what comprises the metabolic model? anatomy: internal organs, endocrine glands physiology: metabolic processes, homeostasis, energy balance, regulatory processes, immunological activities & inflammation repair, digestion, absorption of nutrients, removal of waste & reproduction
what is the goal of treating metabolic model? enhance self-regulatory/healing mechanisms, foster energy conservation (balance energy expenditure & exchange) & enhance immune system, & endocrine/organ function
what OMT techniques are used to improve metabolic function? not necessarily manipulative in nature removing somatic dysfunction will facilitate efficiency of motion & decrease energy expenditure. Nutritional counseling, diet/exercise advice & conservative use of medication to improve cellular/metabolic function
what makes up the anatomy & physiology of the neurologic model? structure: head, brain, spinal cord, autonomic nervous systemn, peripheral nerves function: control, coordination & integration of body functions, protective mechanisms & sensation
what is the goal of treating neurological model? attain autonomic balance & address neural reflex activity, remove facilitated segments, decrease afferent nerve signals & relieve pain
which OMT techniques are used to improve neurologic function? functional, counterstrain, inhibition & chapman reflex points & any OMT that treats spinal dysfunction
what comprises the behavioral model? anatomy: brain physiology: physiological & social activities (anxiety, stress, work, family), habits (sleep, drug use, sexual activities, exercise, values, attitudes, beliefs)
what is the goal of treating behavioral model? to improve biological, psychological & social components of pt health. includes emotional balancing & compensatory mechanisms. reproductive processes & behavioral adaption too.
what is the relationship of the MSK system to the 5 models? -provides framework where all other systems reside -represents entry point for diagnosis & treatment -often reflects/gives clues to internal problems

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
