Convocation 2014
The Broadmoor, Colorado Springs, CO
March 19–23
Participant Workbook
Osteopathic Pledge of Commitment
As members of the osteopathic medical profession, in an effort to instill loyalty and strengthen the profession,
we recall the tenets on which this profession is founded – the dynamic interaction of mind, body and spirit; the
body’s ability to heal itself; the primary role of the musculoskeletal system; and preventive medicine as the key to
maintaining health. We recognize the work our predecessors have accomplished in building the profession, and we
commit ourselves to continuing that work.
I pledge to:
•
Provide compassionate, quality care to my patients;
•
Partner with them to promote health;
•
Display integrity and professionalism throughout my career;
•
Advance the philosophy, practice and science of osteopathic medicine;
•
Continue life-long learning;
•
Support my profession with loyalty in action, word and deed; and
•
Live each day as an example of what an osteopathic physician should be.
(As part of his 2002-2003 “Year of the Member” campaign, the American Osteopathic Association’s Anthony A.
Minissale, DO, appointed and charged the Task Force on the Osteopathic Code of Leadership with creating a
pledge to help build loyalty within the osteopathic medical profession that begins during day one of osteopathic
medical school and continues throughout the osteopathic physician’s career. Over 150 delegates convened in
February 2003 for the annual AOA Leadership Conference and endorsed this Osteopathic Pledge of Commitment,
as well as identified strategies for promoting the pledge throughout the profession. Subsequently, the AOA
Board of Trustees adopted this pledge on February 28, and encouraged its affiliated organizations to assist in its
implementation. Hence, the American Academy of Osteopathy’s leadership recommended communication of
this initiative to all AAO members at the AAO Convocations and in AAO publications).
American Academy of Osteopathy®
Mission Statement & Goals
The mission of the American Academy of Osteopathy® is to teach, advocate, and research the
science, art and philosophy of osteopathic medicine, emphasizing the integration of osteopathic
principles, practices and manipulative treatment in patient care.
1. To maintain, advance and advocate the AAO as a resource of educational excellence on osteopathy.
2. To evaluate and advance policies which will assure the financial growth and viability of the AAO.
3. To develop programs and activities which foster growth and development of the membership.
4. To implement policies ensuring optimal structure and function of the AAO’s boards and committees.
5. To facilitate programs promoting collaborative efforts that further OPP/OMT research and training.
6. To serve the osteopathic medical profession as an advocate, resource and guide in policy making and
standard setting.

pm on Saturday, March 23 (Wekiwa 5). Physicians will receive a 1/2 Category 1-B AOA credit for each person they
treat. There will also be a drawing at noon on Saturday. For every person a physician treats during OES hours, his/her
name will be added to the drawing (e.g., 25 patients, 25 chances to win). The prize is a complimentary registration for
the 2014 AAO Convocation in Colorado Springs, CO!
Speaker Evaluations
In lieu of paper evaluation forms, an e-mail was sent to all participants prior to Convocation containing a link to Survey

When you check in at the self-service computers across from the registration desk, you will receive a ticket for every

turn in the ticket when you enter the room, and it will be scanned at the end of the session to record your CME hours. If
your tickets are not deposited in the designated locations, you will not receive CME credit for those sessions. Attendees
must also have their badge with them to enter the ballroom for the President’s Banquet. They will not be required to wear
their badge throughout the evening, but it will serve as proof that they are registered for this event.

Trauma: An Integrative Osteopathic Approach
TOURO UNIVERSITY CALIFORNIA
Chair of OMM Department
Touro University California, a rapidly growing university offering graduate programs
in health sciences and education, has an excellent opportunity for a Chair of OMM
Department for Touro University, College of Osteopathic Medicine on our Mare
Island campus. The university is part of the Touro College and University System
and is located on the northern tip of San Francisco Bay in Vallejo, California. Touro
University California is an independent, non-profit Jewish-sponsored institution.
It has 1,403 students in three graduate professional colleges (Osteopathic
Medicine, Pharmacy, Education and Health Sciences).
REPORTS TO: Dean, College of Osteopathic Medicine
POSITION DESCRIPTION:
The Chairperson is the academic and administrative leader of the Osteopathic
Manipulative Medicine department of 6 faculty and 6 student Fellows who serve
a class size of 125 students. In addition to these faculty, a highly qualified cadre
of community based Osteopathic Physicians participate in the pre-clinical and
clinical curricula. Many have national and international reputations that enrich
didactic training and further increase the already high faculty to student ratio
in the laboratory setting. The Chairperson reports to the Dean of the College
of Osteopathic Medicine. Through his/her authority over the department, the
Chairperson is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the department and
the long-term development of the department.
SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Oversight of OMM clinical activity. The Chair of the department is responsible
for the allocation and appropriate participation of faculty to provide clinical
care and educational settings. Faculty participation in clinical settings is
an important part of the educational and service aspects of TUCOM. The
current settings include providing OMM services at the joint TUCOM/Solano
County Family Health Services clinic. This clinic has over 30,000 patients
and TUCOM provides OMM services full time as OMM specialists. The faculty
also provides OMM precepting at the Student Run Free Clinic and other
community settings.
• The integration of OMM education into the regional clerkships, and in
the future residency education, is important to the mission of TUCOM
and the department.
• In the 2014-15 academic year a new clinical facility will be completed
on campus, which will expand OMM services.
• Directing faculty research. TUCOM seeks to be a national leader in
the demonstration of osteopathic manipulative treatment efficacy. The
Chairperson is expected to promote a faculty-wide initiative within the
department to demonstrate the various ways that osteopathic manipulative
treatment improves patient outcomes. The Chairperson will work closely
with the Associate Dean for Research and with senior TUC leadership to
establish a culture of active research on campus and national identity of the
department’s strengths.
• Staffing and distribution of curriculum responsibilities. The department provides
a lecture and laboratory sequence in each of the pre-clinical semesters. In the
clinical curriculum, the department provides an OMM clerkship and also works
with adjunct Osteopathic Physicians to offer a wide range of experiences in
preparation for continued use of these principles and practices though the later
phases of their education and practice. Integration of OMM and OPP in the
clinical curriculum is a high priority for the Chairperson and the department.
• Leadership. The Chairperson represents the OMM department in collegewide leadership councils and standing committees such as Curriculum and
Admissions Committees. The Chairperson is responsible for maintaining the
department’s fulfillment of COCA accreditation standards, annual reporting to
AACOM and AOA, and for participation in council and committee service at
the national level.
• Faculty development. In keeping with accreditation standards, TUCOM
provides as much osteopathic principles and philosophy faculty development
as possible both within the OMM department and across the college. The
Chairperson coordinates and sustains this faculty development program.
QUALIFICATION(S):
• Graduate of an AOA accredited College of Osteopathic Medicine.
• AOA board-certified through the American Osteopathic Board of
Neuromusculoskeletal Medicine or have received a Certificate of Special
Proficiency in Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine (C-SPOMM).
• Three (3) years proven experience in teaching and academic leadership in a
medical education setting.
• Demonstrated leadership and productivity in the areas of clinical or professional
service, scholarly activity, medical research or education.
• Evidence of successful scholarly and/or research accomplishments.
• Good standing with all regulatory and governmental boards and agencies.
Applications are reviewed in the order received, and for full consideration
should be received prior to 1 April 2014. Finalists will be scheduled for a public
presentation and a series of interviews on the TUCOM campus.
Salary is competitive and commensurate with background and experience.
Letters of interest, application and curriculum vitae should be submitted via one
of the following methods:

Attention: Interns & Residents
The Postgraduate American Academy of Osteopathy (PAAO)
invites YOU to two very important events!
Please plan to attend the PAAO Mixer in Sebastian K on Wednesday, March 20, from 4:30 pm-6:00 pm
(between the In-Service Exam and the Opening Reception). This is a great opportunity to mingle with other
residents from around the country! There will be food, drinks and a raffle. We have also invited physicians
with job opportunities to attend and discuss what could be in store for you after residency!
The PAAO Annual Business Meeting will take place in Suwannee 11-12 (Upper Level) on Friday, March 22,
from 12:30 pm-2:00 pm. Lunch will be served. We have lined up some amazing speakers to talk about
changes in graduate medical education training, as well as outline what the PAAO has accomplished during
the past year. We are seeking YOUR input for the upcoming year. Get involved by running for a PAAO
leadership position. Elections will be held at this meeting!
If you would like to receive updates on events, opportunities and more, be sure to like us on Facebook. Just

Interns & Residents - Join the PAAO!
Postgraduate American Academy of Osteopathy
Purpose
• Promoting continued education in osteopathic principles and practice (OPP) in postgraduate training programs;
• Forming a network for interns and residents interested in OPP;
• Identifying interns and residents at the annual AAO Convocation;
• Providing a platform for intern and resident issues; and
• Strengthening intern and resident representation at the AAO and the American Osteopathic Assocation (AOA).
Benefits
•

•
•

•
•
Resident Osteopathic Away Rotations (ROAR): The PAAO maintains a list of AAO member physicians who
accept residents to work with them during a rotation away from their program.
AAO Resident of the Year Award: Your opportunity to be recognized for exceptional work in the field of
Osteopathic Medicine.
Low resident fees for courses and Convocation.
Access to a network of more than 1,000 new physicians and PAAO members, who can provide information and
support with the various challenges of the ever-evolving medical field. Network with us on social media such as
Facebook, in person at Convocation or at other conventions such as the AOA’s OMED.
For residents who are interested in doing a +1 year in NMM, there is no better opportunity to become familiar
with the programs, get to know the program directors and establish contacts who can help you find the NMM +1
program that is right for you.
Opportunities to develop osteopathic research projects during residency with access to the Louisa Burns
Osteopathic Research Committee and the Foundation for Osteopathic Research and Continuous Education
(FORCE).
Mentor Program: Open to all members but specific to residents in that they make excellent mentors to medical
students, as they’ve recently experienced many of the challenges they are facing. This is your opportunity to
influence the careers of young DOs!
Once you graduate from osteopathic medical school, you are no longer a member of the AAO. SAAO members
graduating this year should strongly consider rejoining the AAO as a PAAO member and continue to attend
Convocation each year!
I am interested in more information about the PAAO!

Thursday, March 20
Physician Workshop 2D/3D — Allowing Inherent Forces to Resolve Traumatic Strains
W.G. Sutherland has generally been credited with introducing the osteopathic profession to techniques related
to the cranium. However, Sutherland, a direct hands-on-hands student of A.T. Still was certain that Still already
understood the role of the cranium within the osteopathic concept. Sutherland’s life’s work helped him and those
who followed to understand inherent forces within the patient, which he taught to others so they may better
understand Osteopathy. This lecture will present his approach to treatment. He said, “the inherent forces within
the patient’s body are more potent and accurate than any force that can possibly be brought to bear from without.”

Physician Lecture 4A — Trauma as a Living Process
Dysfunctions due to trauma are often hidden by more obvious structural effects. But in the science of osteopathy
we seek to find cause. In our search, we often find the root cause of illness in some type of trauma, persistent yet
hidden—a more primary aspect in a chain of cause and effect. In this lecture, we will take a functional approach,
to look at some of the commonly forgotten aspects of trauma: vector forces which precede any sequelae to the
trauma and which can persist as palpable force factors in a patient’s body. We will examine trauma as a living
process distinct from effects which may follow.
Friday, March 21
Physician Workshop 5A/6A — Treating Functionally Persistent Trauma
There is a reason we call osteopathic lesions “somatic dysfunctions”—with the emphasis on the noun “dysfunctions”—
rather than “functional dys-somatics.” In osteopathic practice we are ultimately more concerned with correcting
dysfunctions than with changing or aligning the somatic form alone. Trauma often persists as a living process. In
this lab session, we will examine functional aspects of trauma as we step beyond protocol-driven care to build a
perception-based methodology for clinical care.
Saturday, March 22
Physician Lecture 7A — Anatomy of Cranial Dural Changes as Functional Results of Trauma
Relating anatomical findings to functional aspects of trauma, we will work from structural effects of trauma to their
possible causal influences, particularly the interplay in motion between anatomical structures of varying plasticity.
Practitioners are accustomed to studying the effects of trauma, and, in fact, most pathology, via snapshots. In this
lecture, demonstrating that a true osteopathic approach is anything but static, we will study snapshots of structure
with an eye toward functional forces that can precede structural change.

The American Fascial Distortion
Model Association
The Fascial Distortion Model (FDM) is an anatomical perspective, originated by US physician
Stephen Typaldos, DO, in which “the underlying etiology of virtually every musculoskeletal injury
(and many neurological and medical conditions) is considered to be comprised of one or more
of six specific pathological alterations of the body’s connective tissues (fascial bands, ligaments,
tendons, retinacula, etc.). As a model, the FDM is an abbreviated interpretation of the pathology of
fascial injuries and contemplates the structural consequences of orthopedic, medical, surgical, and
manipulative interventions.”

Physician Workshop 9F — Coding and Reimbursement: Understanding ACOs and Risk Sharing
in the Emerging Market; and E&M, OMT & ICD-10 Coding 101
ACO: Accountable Care Organizations are not just a buzz word, but a serious reality in the emerging reimbursement
markets, and it’s imperative to understand the value we bring to the table and the uniqueness of our care relative
to the benefit and cost to our patients and the system. Attendees will leave with a basis for conceptualizing how
they are being analyzed along with a strategy for “how to play the game” in their current markets. If you expect to
continue working in the insurance market and being profitable, this knowledge is critical to your success and your
patients’ ability to access your care. Coding 101: On October 1, ICD-10 changes go into effect. This is the largest
change in the health care industry in 20 years. It’s back to basics in this fast-paced, one-hour program presenting
ICD-10, Evaluation and Management (E&M) and Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment (OMT) documentation
requirements. Examples and Q&A will round out this program and will help the seasoned and new provider better
conceptualize how to optimize these coding rules for you and your practice.

system, compromising the autonomic nervous system’s balance and the cranial rhythmic impulse. I
call that disruption injury shock. Until injury shock is addressed and the autonomic nervous system
returned to balance, the body’s ability to heal is severely compromised. For me, treating injury
shock is a critical aspect of treating trauma. In these sessions, I will focus on three to four techniques that I have found key to
releasing injury shock: Dr. Fulford’s abdominal diaphragm release, rebalancing the ANS by treating the mid-thoracic, sacrum
and OA junction, and calming CNS irritability through a version of the CV4 that even practitioners not trained in Cranial
Osteopathy can use.

Physician Workshop 5E — Whiplash as a Total Body Injury
Whiplash is a condition commonly considered to involve only cervical musculoskeletal injury, but the neck nexus
involves multi-region anatomic derangement and multi-system dysfunction. In this lecture/workshop we will relate
postural compensations and spinal junction shifts to mechanism of injury and vector strains in order to provide
head-to-foot clinical evaluations and generate more comprehensive documentation of findings and treatments.
Learn osteopathic techniques (myofascial, cranial, articulatory, HVLA, muscle energy) and take-home exercises
helpful in whiplash recovery from eyestrain to pedal-stomping.

Physician Lecture 4A ­— VSR – Viscero Somatic Release
Physician Workshop 5D/6D ­— VSR – Osteopathic Evaluation and Treatment of Lower
Extremity Injuries with Regard to the Urogenital and Hepatic Systems
This workshop deepens the knowledge gained in the lecture by evaluating the effects of myriad and common lower
extremity injuries as the fascial origin of dysfunction of certain organs of excretion, specifically, the kidney and
urinary bladder and the liver and gallbladder. Old, lower extremity injury causes fascially-mediated restriction and
irritation of the end organ via deposition of shockwave injury patterns along the associated meridian. This triggers
a mechanicotransduction of increasing fascial tone into increasing afferent CNS tone, via the viscero somatic
reflex arc, triggering the increased efferent tone responsible for the somatic complaints we commonly see: somatic
dysfunctions of the lower extremity, pelvis and lumbosacral regions as well as the commonly-known, autonomically
mediated somatic dysfunctions found along dermatomally connected somatic regions. Osteopathic evaluation
and treatment of these old injury patterns with respect to the specific organ dysfunction releases the aberrant,
fascially-mediated tone, decreasing afferent CNS tone and, by reflex, decreases efferent CNS tone, releasing the
somatic complaints associated with the injury pattern and improving the function of these organs.

Who May Attend?
The primary educational objective of the AAO is to provide programs aimed to improve understanding of
philosophy and diagnostic/manipulative skills for AAO members, DOs who are not AAO members, individuals
who are licensed for the unlimited scope and practice of medicine, and for those in programs leading to such
licensure.
Another educational objective of the AAO is to provide programs aimed to improve understanding of manual
techniques for licensed health care professionals within their respective scopes of practice. Enrollment in a class
or classes is not a substitute for completion of education and training in a college of osteopathic medicine, and
simply taking a course or courses in manual techniques does not provide the necessary training and skills to practice osteopathic manipulative treatment and/or osteopathic manipulative medicine. Cancellation & Refund
Policy
The American Academy of Osteopathy® reserves the right to cancel an educational program if an insufficient
number of physicians register. Sufficient registrations must be received 30 days prior to the opening of the course.
If you are considering registering for a course less than 30 days prior to the opening, contact the Academy office
before making travel plans. In the event of course cancellation due to lack of registrations, all registration money
will be refunded.
Cancellations from participants received in writing and signed 30 or more days before the course opening may
receive an 80 percent refund of their registration fee.
For cancellations received in writing less than 30 days before the course opening, registrants may transfer 80
percent of their registration fee to another course to be held within the next 12 months. Registrants who fail to
appear for an AAO program can transfer up to 50 percent of their registration fee to another AAO educational
program to be held within the next 12 months if a written and signed explanation is received at the AAO office
within 10 days of the scheduled course. All other cancellations will receive no refund or transfer of registration
fees.
