Abstract

I read the article, “Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine Consultations for Hospitalized Patients,” published in the May 2019 issue of The Journal of the American Osteopathic Association, with interest. The authors correctly pointed out that there is a body of evidence supporting the benefit of osteopathic manipulative medicine (OMM) as adjunctive treatment for patients with common inpatient conditions, such as respiratory failure, pneumonia, asthma, postoperative ileus, abdominal surgery, pancreatitis, and small bowel obstruction.
