  3. use scientific instruments and measurements to validate OS findings (EMG for SD on reflexes/ANS)
  4. facilitated segment, emotional states inc. sympathetic tone
  5. best inter-examiner reliability studies. simplify recording methods and palpatory procedures
30
Q

What are 4 challenges to OMM research?

A
  • objective findings only appreciated by subjective experience
  • variability in skill of OMM application
  • resources required

31
Q

OMM Research: Clinical Outcomes

  1. Acute Otitis Media
  2. Lower Extremity Wound Healing
  3. Chronic Sinusitis
A
  1. faster middle ear effusion (resolution) - efficacy
