| Osteopathic medicine and primary care practice: plan or serendipity? Melnick, A. (1990), Acad Med 65(12 Suppl): S87-9. Abstract: General practitioners predominate in osteopathic medicine (57% of all D.O.s), as compared with allopathic medicine. A number of possible reasons are put forth: the student selection process (cloning by admission committee general practitioners); special features of osteopathic education (more required courses, primary care courses, and rotations); training in osteopathic hospitals (mainly community institutions); a required rotating internship; and predominant departments of general practice in osteopathic hospitals and colleges (providing more high-quality general practitioner role models). The author suggests consideration of personality differences, as measured by the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, as a possible causative factor in differences between the allopathic and osteopathic segments of medicine. |

| Osteopathic medicine: a call for reform Meyer, C. T. and A. Price (1993), J Am Osteopath Assoc 93(4): 473-85. Abstract: During the past 40 years, the osteopathic medical profession has undergone a transformation from "osteopathy" to "osteopathic medicine." The former was characterized by manipulative treatment; the latter, by full-service healthcare. During this transformation, the profession has won acceptance from the government, the military, and MDs. These changes in status have resulted in new problems for the profession because DO graduates are increasingly turning toward allopathic programs for residency training. Thus, osteopathic medicine's primary care orientation is being replaced by an emphasis on specialty training. The authors propose that osteopathic medicine return to its original mission of primary care, abandon or restrict specialty training to those who have completed primary care residencies, and rethink its separate-but-equal posture. They also propose that osteopathic medicine establish lines of communication with allopathic medicine, the American Medical Association, and the government to facilitate the development of a rational national policy for primary care that considers the potential osteopathic medicine has to offer in meeting the nation's primary care needs. |

| Osteopathic philosophy and emergent treatment in acute respiratory failure Stretanski, M. F. and G. Kaiser (2001), J Am Osteopath Assoc 101(8): 447-9. Abstract: Osteopathic manipulation has been used to treat a wide range of diseases in largely outpatient settings. The authors describe the emergent use of osteopathic manipulative treatment to improve respiratory mechanics in a critically ill patient with acute respiratory failure. High-velocity mobilization of cervical and thoracic dysfunctions resulted in a decreased work of breathing, improved arterial oxygenation, resolution of tachycardia, and an overall improvement in the patient's clinical condition. |

| Osteopathic physician location and specialty choice Denslow, J. S., M. C. Hosokawa, et al. (1984), J Med Educ 59(8): 655-61. Abstract: Physician distribution continues as a major national issue despite the projected oversupply of physicians by 1990. Kirksville College of Osteopathic Medicine (KCOM) in Kirksville, Missouri, has a high percentage of its graduates going into rural primary care. In this study of physicians who graduated from KCOM from 1930 to 1974, the authors sought to identify the factors influencing physicians to select rural primary care. The size of the physician's hometown, KCOM curricular experiences, and faculty role models were the most important factors influencing a physician to select rural primary care. While these findings are similar to other studies, this is the first to examine osteopathic medicine. |
| Osteopathic physicians and expert medical testimony McAbee, G. N. (1997), J Am Osteopath Assoc 97(1): 47-8. Abstract: The US Supreme Court addressed the issue of expert medical and scientific testimony in the 1993 case Daubert v Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The guidelines to be used as a standard for expert medical witnesses under Daubert differ from earlier standards used by many courts for more than 70 years. This commentary reviews the history of previous and current standards used to determine admissibility of medical testimony in legal proceedings and discusses the ramifications of these standards for osteopathic physicians involved in the medical malpractice process. |

| Osteopathic postdoctoral education Baker, H. H. and J. Wachtler (1989), J Am Osteopath Assoc 89(11): 1447-50, 1453-5. Abstract: Osteopathic postdoctoral education is still in transition. With a projected modest decline in the number of graduates and continued increase in the number of intern positions, the profession can now accommodate all graduates in osteopathic internships. Changes have been made in the intern program curriculum and in procedures for approval of residency training to be more responsive to the current healthcare environment and needs of osteopathic graduates. The AOA Department of Education will continue to monitor and report on the impact of these changes. |
