Question
Answer
Definition of Osteopathic Medicine   OM is a complete system of medical care with a philosophy that combines the needs of the patient w/ the current practice of medicine..., that emphasizes the relationship b/w structure & function, and that has an appreciation for the body's ability to heal  
🗑
Principles of OM   1. The body is a unit. 2. The body is capable of self-healing, self-regulation, etc. 3. Structure and function are reciprocally interdependent. 4. Rational treatment is based on the above.  
🗑
Somatic dysfunction   the impaired or altered function of related components of the somatic body  
🗑
Spinal Facilitation   the maintenance of a pool of neurons in a state of partial or sub threshold excitation - less afferent stimulation is required to trigger the discharge of impulses

🗑
Fryette's Law I   when the spine is in neutral, SB & rotation are in OPPOSITE directions - forms long curves w/ multiple segments & is often compensatory  
🗑
Freyette's Law II   when the spine is flexed or extended, SB & rotation are in the SAME direction - usually involve single segments & is primarily due to a somatic dysfunction (strain or VS reflex)  
🗑

🗑
2 ABSOLUTE CONTRAINDICATION for OMT   1. The absence of SD 2. The patient says NO.  
🗑
If the patient presents bent forward, tender points tend to be located...   anteriorly b/c the patient tends to bend around the tender points  
🗑
CS vs. Chapman's vs. Trigger points (because they are all tender...)   CS: non-radiating; Chapma's: VS reflex; Trigger: referred pain  
🗑
Sherrington's Law (MF diagnosis)   when a muscle receives a nerve impulse to contract, its antagonists receive, simultaneously, an impulse to relax.  
🗑

🗑
Tensegrity (MF diagnosis)   Fascia moves as a unit in a tensengrity matrix down to the cellular level.

🗑
Acute/severe problem prescription   indirect techniques, fewer regions/doses, 1-2 treatments/week for 2-4 weeks  
🗑
Chronic problem prescription   any technique, more regions/higher dose, every 2-6 weeks for as long as its helpful  
🗑
Right lymphatic duct   drains RIGHT upper body, crosses thoracic inlet once, drains into jugulosubclavian junction  
🗑

🗑
