information or refuses to comply
Physician centered
Which medical practice model is an example of an Adult-Adult transaction?
Patient centered
The treatment team that exploits ideas and participation from each member and seeks
to reach a set of conclusions superior to what any team member could do alone is a
Synergistic team
Dr. A.T. Still believed that
The body is a unit of body, mind, and spirit
The brain structure that processes both pain and emotion which can amplify nociceptive
input or even misinterpret other sensory input as pain is
The amygdala
Dr. Sutherland developed the
Cranial concept
The structures that relay vital forces throughout the body are
Arteries, veins, and lymphatics
The structures that manifest the "breath of life" are
All of the above
Brain, CSF, dural membranes, & bones
The philosophy of osteopathic medicine is based partly on the principle that
The body has self-regulatory maintenance mechanisms
Holistic clinical logic tends to be
Nonlinear
A significant differentiation between osteopathic and allopathic medicine is
The diagnosis and treatment of somatic dysfunction
The group of neurons that are thought to become facilitated in a viscerosomatic reflex
are
Internuncial neurons
The spinal cord links seemingly unrelated systems and structures in a logical manner
through
Viscerosomatic and somatovisceral reflexes
Through palpation, a practitioner may determine
A&D
That each patient's body is unique & that each patient reacts differently to touch
Understanding cultural differences in clinical practice is important because

It is considered to be a federal standard of care, they play an important role in people's
attitudes toward illness and pain, they can contribute to poorer health outcomes,
increased suffering, and higher mortality, and it can affect health literacy

Rotated and sidebent in the same direction
In the absence of a musculoskeletal complaint, somatic dysfunction is
Treated because of its potential impact upon the patient's illness
When the dysfunctional barrier of a given somatic dysfunction is the result of articular
dysfunction, the most appropriate OMT to employ would be
HVLA
A viscerosomatic reflex is specifically addressed by treating
The underlying visceral pathology
Understanding the overall health status and age of the patient affects the manipulative
prescription by
Altering the patient's tolerance to OMT
When identifying the criteria for the diagnosis of somatic dysfunction, the mnemonic
TART stands for
Tenderness to palpation, asymmetry of position, restriction of motion, and tissue texture
change
OMT is the definitive treatment for ICD-9 CM code
739
Viscerosomatic reflex dysfunction at the T1-T3 level arises from the following areas
Head, heart, & lungs
