OMT In a Busy Office Practice
![Page 2: Paul Evans DO, FAAFP, FACOFP Vice President and Dean](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815c5f550346895dca65cd/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Introduction
• OMT is evidence based for improving clinical outcomes but not used by osteopathic physicians• Obstacles to doing OMT including:
• time for competent assessment and treatment
• documentation concerns• concerns about safety and effectiveness if not a specialist
![Page 3: Paul Evans DO, FAAFP, FACOFP Vice President and Dean](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815c5f550346895dca65cd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Introduction
“How can I use OMT in an efficient manner to increase
my utilization of this important treatment option?”

Basic Musculoskeletal Manipulation Skills: The 15 Minute Office Encounter. Rowane, MP, Evans P. 2012 (in press).
Based on over 20 years of teaching novices (MD, DO, PA, others) basic skills in manipulation.

--------------------Manipulation and Low Back Pain--------------------
Does Workshop Training In Manipulation Work? Short workshop - primary care MD’s Confidence in managing low back pain
pre course = 15%, post = 70% Felt that effective skills had been
obtained pre course= 39%, post 58%
Used manipulation in practice = 100% Curtis P, Evans P, Rowane MP et al. Training generalist

Manipulation By Novices: Does It Work?
U. North Carolina Study (AHCPR / AHRQ) 31 primary care MD’s (17-FP and 14-IM) Passed course, randomized office LBP
patients Manipulation plus “Enhanced Care” (guidelines) “Enhanced Care” only
Compared Roland-Morris Functional Disability scores, time to functional & complete recovery

Manipulation By Novices: Does It Work?
Overall similar outcomes both groups “Intense manipulation” in 3 regions (long
restrictors, SI, lumbar) showed: faster initial recovery after first visit
9% no manip vs. 19% any manip (p=0.05) faster functional recovery
7.6 days high vs. 11.8 no manip (p=0.02)

Manipulation By Novices: Is It Safe?
Over 1600 OMT procedures done* No complications reported on 295 patients
most with multiple procedures / visits * Complication rate lowest in low back for OMT OMT appears much safer than NSAID’s
GI perforation risk for aspirin = 3.7:1 NSAID plus smoking plus any etoh = 10.7:1
(Van Tulder MW et al. Spine 2000;2501-2513) Recent MI risks for NSAIDs?

Goals Of Manipulation
Restore maximum pain-free movement of the musculoskeletal system in postural balance

Assessment - Lumbar Most common dysfunction = lumbo
sacral junction L5-S1 Use “pelvic rock” motion test Least motion = dysfunctional “bad” side
![Page 33: Paul Evans DO, FAAFP, FACOFP Vice President and Dean](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815c5f550346895dca65cd/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
--------------------Manipulation and Low Back Pain--------------------
Techniques - Lumbar Spine
Soft tissue technique patient in prone position use thenar and hypothenar
eminence to push para-lumbar muscles away from midline
can also use in thoraco-lumbars
![Page 34: Paul Evans DO, FAAFP, FACOFP Vice President and Dean](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815c5f550346895dca65cd/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Techniques - Lumbar Spine
Lumbar roll - patient lateral recumbent bad side UP shoulders parallel to table
“dishrag” roll knee down to “barrier” Force mid-pelvis (no wheel) use ME or HVLA

Conclusion of Visit
Describe diagnosis and treatment to patient in 5th grade terms
Recommend non Rx treatments Exercise, stretching, nutrition/weight
loss, ice, heat, activity alteration, posture change, PT/OT
RX if needed Indicate referrals, follow up, other Handout for OMT and low back pain
![Page 37: Paul Evans DO, FAAFP, FACOFP Vice President and Dean](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/56815c5f550346895dca65cd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Documentation
Code Sites of pain/condition Code Sites of somatic dysfunction treated
(body regions) CPT codes (use 25 modifier)
Psoas = 4 regions - lumbar, sacrum, pelvis, lower extremity
Plan documentation OMT, exercise and rehabilitation, physical
modalities, medications, images, referrals, return to clinic date etc.

Summary
OMT can be used effectively in a short office visit
Focus on defined history “red flags” Focus assessment and treatment on
common dysfunctions Assess, treat, reassess Use checklist for efficiency and
reminders Coding with 25 modifier important
