The ABC’s of Osteopathic Medicine:
How to organize your patient approach
Osteopathic Philosophy
OMT
What makes osteopathic physicians unique?
Most D.O.’s utilize OMT less than 5% of the time?
ONMM & Family Medicine D.O.’s most likely to utilize OMT
Conditions and diagnoses for which osteopathic primary care physicians and specialists use osteopathic manipulative treatmentSM Johnson; ME Kurtz
The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association, October 2002, Vol. 102, 527-540.
How much is OMT being utilized in practice?
● Time● Practice protocol● Training deficiencies● Attitudes● Not sure where to start● Comfort level in application● Patient unfamiliarity
What barriers exist to OMT utilization?
For what type of issue/complain is OMT most often used?

“I don’t know how to treat that”
-Every medical student I ever trained
Solution came from the problem
What’s the issue then?
-Application of principles to novel situations-Think quickly, under pressure-Rely on basic understandings with firm foundational knowledge
Often, you do know the solution already
A framework for:
● Where to look for somatic dysfunction ○ to optimally treat any patient with any condition
● A way to organize treatment ○ based on treatment objective
What are the ABC’s?
AUTONOMICS
BIOMECHANICS
CIRCULATION
SCREENING
The ABC’s are:
Assess and treat areas of autonomic influence
Ex: sinusitis
● Sympathetic: T1-T5● Parasympathetic: OA, AA, C2, cranium
AUTONOMICS
ORGAN SYMPATHETIC PARASYMPATHETIC
Head and Neck T1-T5 Vagus Nerve (also CNIII, VII, IX)
Heart T1-T5 Vagus Nerve
Lung T2-T5 Vagus Nerve
Lower Esophagus / Stomach T5-T10 Vagus Nerve
Liver and Gallbladder T6-T9 Vagus Nerve
Small Intestine T9-T11 Vagus Nerve
Ascending / transverse colon T11-L1 Vagus Nerve
Descending and Sigmoid colon/rectum
L1-L2 S2-S4
Kidney T10-L1 Vagus Nerve
Ovary/Testes T9-T11 S2-S4
Uterus T12-L1 S2-S4
Cervix T10-L2 S2-S4
Autonomic function is essential to physiologic processes
Autonomic dysfunction exacerbates or is contributing factor to ANY medical condition
How does it do this?
Why AUTONOMICS first?
Primary Afferent Nociceptors● Widely distributed throughout tissues of the body● Chemical, thermal, and mechanical (proprioceptors)● Synapse in spinal gray matter
● Increased input of receptors cause upregulation of interneurons
● Upregulation of interneurons, can upregulatesympathetic efferents
Somatic Dysfunction AutonomicNervous System Connection
Pickar, 2002
Most of what we teach/learn
Ex: Low Back Pain
● Hamstring tightness● Pubic tubercle symmetry● Innominate shears● Sacral dysfunctions● Innominate rotations● Innominate flares
● Also, distal connections - cranium, cervical/thoracic spine, upper/lower extremity; tenderpoints
BIOMECHANICS
“how mechanical forces applied during osteopathic manipulative treatment could lead to effects at the cellular level…”
Biotensegrity
Biotensegrity: A Unifying Theory of Biological Architecture With Applications to Osteopathic Practice, Education, and Research—A Review and Analysis. Swanson RL, DO, PhD. JAOA Jan 2013
Biomechanical applications of OMT in ● Asthma● CHF● GERD● UTI
CIRCULATION
Assess and treat areas of arterial, venous, and lymphatic influence
Ex: sinusitis
● Arterial● Venous● Lymphatic
○ Diaphragms - Thoracic Inlet, Thoracoabdominal, pelvic, etc. .
● Remember to treat terminal drain first (Thoracic inlet)!
● Under sympathetic control
● Lymphatic flow dramatically increased with thoracic/abdominal pumps
● Osteopathic lymphatic pump techniques enhance immunity
Lymphatics
Lymphatic Pump Treatment Mobilizes Bioactive Lymph That Suppresses Macrophage Activity In VitroRudy Castillo, BS; Artur Schander, MS, DO, PhD; Lisa M. Hodge, PhDJAOA, July 2018, Vol. 118, 455-461.
● LPT significantly increased ○ TDL flow and protein flux in TDL (P<.001)
● LPT significantly decreased ○ NO2−, TNF-α, and IL-10 by macrophages (P<0.01)
Conclusion: The redistribution of protective lymph during LPT may provide scientific rationale for the clinical use of LPT to reduce inflammation and manage edema.
Recent Scholarly Activity
Lymphatic Pump Treatment as an Adjunct to Antibiotics for Pneumonia in a Rat ModelLisa M. Hodge, PhD; Caitlin Creasy, MS; KiahRae, Carter, MS; Ashley Orlowski, BS; Artur Schander, DO, PhD; Hollis H. King, DO, PhDJAOA, May 2015, Vol. 115, 306-316.
● LPT and levofloxacin significantly reduced CFU compared with sham therapy and levofloxacin ○ Decreased bacterial load at 72 and 96 hours after infection (P<0.05)
Conclusion: The results suggest that 3 applications of LPT induces an additional protective mechanism when combined with levofloxacin and support its use as an adjunctive therapy for the management of pneumonia; however, the mechanism responsible for this protection is unclear.

AUTONOMICS of UTI
BIOMECHANICS of UTIKidney motion
● <1cm with respiration● Motion not uniform, why?
Iliolumbar ligament● Postural decompensation can cause masquerading pain
Diaphragm motion● Dyssynchronous motion increases intrapelvic pressure, urinary reflux● Pelvic floor tension can lead to dysuria/polyuria
Pelvis● Pubic symphysis tension or pubovesicular ligament dysfucntion ->

* Lumbar spine (crura attach here)* Hiatal Hernia
*Circulation:* Diaphragm* Thoracic inlet
*Screen:* Zink Screen* Mind, Body, Spirit Connection* Behavioral Contributions
Sympathetics● T5-T12
○ Via greater and lesser splanchnic nerve, celiac plexus● Decreases mucosal defenses against digestive acids via vasocontriction● Nociceptive signals are conveyed by sympathetic & vagal afferents
○ Mechanosensory signalling
Parasympathetics● Vagus nerve
○ Left = greater curvature○ Right = lesser curvature
● Increases secretion of glands
AUTONOMICS of GERD
BIOMECHANICS of GERD
Stomach/Esophagus● Exhaled (superior)♦ pulls cardiac portion of stomach through sphincter -> hiatal hernia
Thoracoabdominal diaphragm● Crura intricately related to esophagus
Thoracic spine motion● Restriction can be “sticky” in quality suggesting viscero-somatic reflex
Lumbar spine motion• Crural attachment, anchor
Circulation of GERDArterial supply
● Left gastric artery branches, thoracic aorta○ Branch directly from aorta
Venous drainage● Left gastric, short gastric, azygous/hemiazygous● GE junction -> anastomosis of portosystemic systems
Lymphatic drainage● Small channels into cisterna chyli, between right crus and aorta● Cisterna chyli drains to thoracic duct
● Thoracic inlet -> TA diaphragm -> pelvic diaphragm
Screening for GERDZink ScreenConsider places where fluid may become restricted at mechanical diaphragms
Chapman’s Points● Anterior
○ Esophagus■ Intercostal space between 2nd and 3rd ribs, close to sternum
○ Stomach (acidity)■ 5th intercostal space (bt 5th and 6th rib)
● Posterior○ Esophagus
■ T2 -> midway between SP and TP○ Stomach (acidity)
■ Intertransverse space between T5-T6 -> midway between SP and TP
Mind, Body, Spirit● Lifestyle modifications like quitting smoking and losing weight (if overweight/obese)● Avoid foods that relax LES
○ Alcohol, chocolate, coffee, cow’s milk, fat, orange juice, spicy foods, tea, tomato juice● Avoid large meals or meals too close to bedtime● Increase HOB by 4-6 inches (under bed, not pillows)● Exercise -> weight loss, but also direct effects improving digestion
● Mnemonic trigger to help think of OMT○ Where to treat○ Why to treat○ By what mechanism
● Overlap treatments
○ Often treating 1-2 dysfunction can satisfy all ABC’s
● Examples○ Thoracic inlet○ Rib raising○ Suboccipital release○ Pelvic (Mitchell Model)
