Default Babies and FSU's chiro college: Can DCs and MDs prevent medical error together?

BABIES AND FSU's CHIRO COLLEGE

CAN DCs and MDs PREVENT MEDICAL ERROR TOGETHER?

FSU = Florida State University

Attention Florida Board of Chiropractic Medicine (Wayne C. WOLFSON, DC et
al.): Florida DCs must take "2 hours prevention of medical errors as
provided in Rule 64B2-13.0045, F.A.C." See below.

AN EGREGIOUS MEDICAL ERROR (a *spinal manipulation* medical error)

Pregnant women: OBs are closing birth canals up to 30% and keeping birth
canals closed when babies get stuck.

OBs are performing gruesome spinal manipulation on babies - pulling with
hands, forceps, vacuums - with birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%.
Sometimes OBs pulls so hard they rip spinal nerves our of tiny spinal cords.

UNNECESSARY C-SECTIONS: OBs CAUSE cephalopelvic disproportion (close the
pelvis up to 30%) then perform c-sections BEcause of cephalopelvic
disproportion.

UNNECESSARY EPISIOTOMIES: OBs are slicing vaginas en masse (routine
episiotomy) - surgically/fraudulently inferring they are doing everything
possible to open birth canals - even as they close birth canals up to 30%.

Ladies... It's easy to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%.
All you have to do is roll onto your side as you push your baby out. Note:
This won't prevent all operative vaginal deliveries and unnecessary
c-sections and episiotomies but it will very likely prevent some.

WHITE ELEPHANT FACT: Women shouldn't have to ASK for this "extra" up to
30% - but that's the way it is - so talk to your OB today.


BABIES AND FSU's CHIRO COLLEGE: CAN DCs and MDs PREVENT THIS EGREGIOUS
MEDICAL ERROR TOGETHER?

Wayne,

The Florida Board of Chiropractic Medicine MANDATES that new DCs learn how
to prevent medical errors, as in,

"Continuing Education - Initial Biennium...2 hours prevention of medical
errors as provided in Rule 64B2-13.0045, F.A.C."
http://www.doh.state.fl.us/mqa/chiro...ceinitial.html

Please make sure the Florida Board of Chiropractic Medicine's "2 hours
prevention of medical errors" class includes discussion of Florida
obstetricians closing birth canals up to 30% and routinely keeping birth
canals closed when babies get stuck as they gruesomely (sometimes fatally)
manipulate most babies' spines.

See my Open Letter to FSU faculty member Steve Rothrock, MD below.

Thanks.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo



STEVE ROTHROCK, MD

"Dr. Steve Rothrock...who teaches at [FSU's] medical school, called
chiropractic 'quackery'...said he would consider resigning if the [FSU
chiropractic] school is established."
http://www.sptimes.com/2004/12/12/St...tic_scho.shtml

OPEN LETTER (archived for global access; see below)

Steven Rothrock, MD
Orlando Clerkship Faculty
College of Medicine
Florida State University/FSU
Fourth Year Clinical Clerkship in Emergency Medicine
BCC 7180 (2004-2005)
via Ed Bradley, III, M.D., Course Director,
(850) 645-1833

Steve,

I note with pleasure that the FSU Board of Trustees just voted to seek
permission from the Florida Board of Governors to continue working on
establishing an FSU College of Chiropractic.

Please don't resign if the FSU chiropractic school is established.

Instead, work with DCs to stop spinal manipulation quackery by **MDs**.

FSU College of Medicine uncritically calls Williams Obstetrics "the
definitive textbook of obstetrics."
http://med.fsu.edu/education/Syllabi...Gynecology.asp

Williams Obstetrics teaches medical students to close birth canals up to 30%
and KEEP birth canals closed when babies get stuck. See The Four OB Lies
below.

Williams Obstetrics teaches medical students to pull on tiny spines with
hands, forceps and vacuums - with the birth canal closed up to 30%.

It's gruesome mass spinal manipulation by MDs...

OBs sometimes pull so hard they rip spinal nerves out of tiny spinal cords.

Some babies die - some babies get paralyzed - most "only" have their spines
gruesomely wrenched.

ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal senselessly closed
up to 30%.

Additionally, OBs are committing SURGICAL felonies/batteries - slicing
vaginas/abdomens en masse (episiotomy/c-section) - surgically/fraudulently
inferring they are doing/have done everything possible to open birth
canals - even as they close birth canals up to 30%.

TO BE SURE STEVE...Allowing birth canals to open the "extra" up to 30% is
not going to prevent all operative vaginal deliveries, episiotomies and
c-sections - but it will likely prevent some. Besides, it is ILLEGAL for
OBs to lie and keep birth canals closed when babies get stuck. See OB Lie #4
below. (I am in favor of pardons in advance for MDs because as med students,
MDs are TRAINED to perform obvious felonies.)

Steve, being on FSU's emergency medicine clerkship faculty, I'm sure you
immediately recognized in my discussion above that FSU's "definitive
textbook of obstetrics" teaches medical students how to CAUSE some of the
very emergencies you teach them to treat: "Obstetric and gynecologic
emergencies: acute pelvic pain...vaginal bleeding, sexual assault"
http://med.fsu.edu/education/Syllabi...cyMedicine.asp

(Mass vagina slicing alone can cause acute pelvic pain and vaginal bleeding.
It is a form of sexual assault when it is fraudulently performed to allow
the birth to open as the birth canal is being closed up to 30%.)

FORTUNATELY STEVE...

FSU medical students (and presumably clerkship faculty members) have the
responsibility "to refuse to tolerate violations of academic integrity in
the University community..."
http://med.fsu.edu/education/Syllabi...cyMedicine.asp

"Violations of academic integrity"...

THE FOUR OB LIES

OB LIE #1. After MASSIVE change in the AP pelvic outlet diameter was
clinically demonstrated in 1911 and radiographically demonstrated in 1957,
the authors of Williams Obstetrics began erroneously claiming that pelvic
diamaters DON'T CHANGE at delivery.

OB LIE #2. After Ohlsen pointed out in 1973 that pelvic diameters DO
change - the authors of Williams Obstetrics began erroneously claiming that
their most frequent delivery position - dorsal - widens the outlet.

OB LIE #3. After I pointed out in 1992 that dorsal CLOSES - and so does
semisitting - the authors of Williams Obstetrics - put the correct
biomechanics in their 1993 edition - but kept in their text (in the same
paragraph!) - the dorsal widens bald lie that first called my attention to
their text...

OB LIE #4. OBs are actually KEEPING birth canals closed when babies get
stuck - and claiming they are doing everything to allow the birth canal open
maximally. (ACOG Shoulder Dystocia video - also forceps and vacuum births
are performed with the mother in lithotomy.)

See Make birth better: Dan Rather, before you leave CBS...
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2983

I noted some of the OB lies in an Open Letter to the FTC years ago...
http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html

AFFILIATED HOSPITAL EMERGENCY DEPARTMENTS can stop the OB surgical and
spinal manipulation felonies, as in,

"The majority of time that the student spends on the [FSU] Clerkship in
Emergency Medicine will be spent in an affiliated hospital Emergency
Department as an apprentice to one or two emergency medicine physicians from
the Emergency Medicine Clerkship Faculty."
http://med.fsu.edu/education/Syllabi...cyMedicine.asp

Steve, please do NOT resign from the FSU med school faculty until you have
put your opposition to quackery to the best possible use - stopping the most
prolific spinal manipulators - MD-obstetricians - from senselessly closing
birth canals the "extra" up to 30% and gruesomely manipulating most babies'
spines.

KEEP IN MIND STEVE: MD-obstetricians are KEEPING birth canals closed when
babies get stuck. You have an opportunity to save tiny lives and tiny limbs
and PREVENT more putative vertebral subluxations than FSU chiropractic
graduates will ever be able to adjust by hand.

PLEASE NOTE: This e-mail is a NON-SPINAL (educational) chiropractic
adjustment.

Dr. DD Palmer, founder of chiropractic, said "Chiropractic came as an
educator" and he named chiropractic (in part) "the mental act of
accumulating knowledge."

Dr. Palmer did this because MDs were RESTRICTING the mental act of
accumulating knowledge.

MDs are STILL restricting the mental act of accumulating knowledge. (See The
Four OB Lies above.)

Adjusting MDs via education is part of the chiropractic physician's job
(just like adjusting DCs is part of the medical physician's job).

Nobody's perfect, Steve - certainly not medicine. Indeed, medicine is
practicing obvious CRIMINAL quackery - lying and closing birth canals up to
30% - and gruesomely manipulating most babies' spines at birth.

I am in favor of pardons in advance. See my note to Ian Rogers, MD below.

MD-obstetrician quackery is illegally sucking BILLIONS per year out of the
healthcare system.

Steve, please adjust using this NON-SPINAL chiropractic adjustment (this
email).

Your chiropractic adjusting using this email chiropractic adjustment could
ultimately SAVE those billions per year and thereby pay for a LOT of
public-university-based chiropractic colleges - not just the one being
considered for FSU.

Thanks for reading.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo


PS Back to Florida Board of Chiropractic Medicine Chairman Wayne C. Wolfson,
DC...

Wayne,

Tampa Tribune Reporter William March wrote after talking to you:

"Many modern chiropractors play down the role of subluxation, describing
their profession as a healing technique involving 'evaluation and treatment
of the whole person ... using noninvasive procedures, without surgery or
drugs, emphasizing manual treatments including manipulation of the body,'
in Wolfson's words..."
http://www.tampatrib.com/MGBYIZAWX3E.html

WHY do many modern chiropractors "play down the role of subluxation"?

Why are chiropractic physicians "emphasizing manual treatments"?

Why are they forgetting to mention the NON-SPINAL (education) part of
subluxation theory?

As alluded to above, Dr. DD Palmer, founder of chiropractic, identified and
adjusted subluxations (bald lies) in the external environment. His 1910
book was named The Chiropractor's Adjuster in part because it adjusted
errors in son BJ's periodical The Chiropractor.

The most easily identified (and adjusted) subluxations - THE FOUR OB LIES -
are being ignored by MDs and DCs alike as MDs perform gruesome spinal
manipulation. (ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal
closed the "extra" up to 30%.)

Reporter March wrote further...

"Yet Wolfson acknowledged subluxation is 'certainly the basis of
chiropractic'..."

ALL of subluxation theory - not just vertebral subluxation theory - is the
basis of chiropractic.

Reporter March also wrote:

"Jones, the chiropractor-legislator, didn't answer directly when asked this
week whether the FSU school would teach subluxation. He said the program
'has to be scientific- based'...Wolfson said he expects the theory would be
taught, however."
http://www.tampatrib.com/MGBYIZAWX3E.html

It would be great if the birth of the FSU College of Chiropractic was
ushered in by MDs and DCs working together to adjust OBs and make birth
safer for babies.

Wayne, this is a golden opportunity for MDs and DCs work together to save
tiny lives and tiny limbs and PREVENT more putative vertebral subluxations
than DCs will ever be able to adjust by hand.

Will you immediately forward this email to your fellow board members?

Ian,

St. Petersburg Times Reporter Ron Mathus quoted you:

"'I would no longer wish to volunteer my teaching energies to FSU medical
school, should it encompass a school of chiropractic,' wrote Dr. Ian Rogers,
an assistant professor at FSU's Pensacola campus, in a Dec. 15 e-mail. 'This
is plainly ludicrous!!!!'"

Ian, it is CRIMINALLY ludicrous for OBs to routinely close birth canals and
keep birth canals closed when babies get stuck as they pull with hands,
forceps and vacuums - sometimes pulling so hard they rip spinal nerves out
of tiny spinal cords.

I am in favor of pardons in advance for MDs. MDs are just academic prime
cuts forced through this culture's most powerful mental meatgrinder.

As med students MDs are TRAINED to perform obvious felonies.

Ian, the Four OB Lies (see above) are rather obvious lies.

Please turn your teaching energies to teaching OBs that it is wrong to lie
and close birth canals the "extra" up to 30% and keep birth canals closed
when babies get stuck and gruesomely manipulate most babies' spines at
birth.

LUDICROUS...

Obviously, it is ludricrous that women have to ASK obstetricians for the
"extra" up to 30%.

Obviously, it is ludicrous that OBs are KEEPING birth canals closed when
babies get stuck - even as they claim to be doing everything possible to
open birth canals.

Obviously, it is ludicrous that MDs are ignoring AMA's Principles of Medical
Ethics, failing to expose the OB fraud and deception, as in,

"[AMA physician[s] shall...strive to expose those physicians...who engage in
fraud or deception."

"[AMA p]hysician[s] shall...seek changes in those requirements which are
contrary to the best interests of the patient."

"[AMA p]hysician[s] shall...make relevant information available to patients,
colleagues, and the public..."

RAY BELLAMY, MD

ORTHOPEDIC/IDIOPATHIC ADOLESCENT SCOLIOSIS/SQUATTING DIGRESSION...

"Orthopaedic as a specialty was founded by Nicholas Andry (1658-1742)."
http://www.vos.org/about/letters.iph...&title=history

"Nicholas Andry was a French pediatrician who hated the brutal barber
surgeons of his day (Wenger, 1993). At the age of 83 (a year before his
death) he wrote a short book entitled Orthopaedia. Thus, in 1741 this name
combined the root words for straight (orthos) and child (paedia) to create
the name still used today for the broad musculoskeletal field, orthopedics.
Andry believed that scoliosis was caused by asymmetric muscle tightness..."
http://www.emedicine.com/orthoped/topic504.htm

Attention FSU faculty orthopedic surgeon RAY BELLAMY, MD (via
and hopefully also via chiropractic critic Attorney
Jann Bellamy
- Ray's wife?)

Ray,

What if sitting in chairs all day causes "asymmetric muscle tightness"?

Do children in squatting culture's suffer less idiopathic adolescent
scoliosis?

What if some cases of scoliosis in children are being caused by forcing
children to sit in chairs?

What if the scoliosis gender imbalance (is it still 4:1 girls to boys?)
was/is due to chairdwelling girls being more sedentary and chairdwelling
boys being more active - combined with the gender difference in timing of
skeletal maturation?

Regardless Ray, I think it's time for medical and chiropractic educators to
at least start publicly discussing this culture's bizarre habit of - in the
process of education - robbing children of a fundamental human rest posture
that happens to double (for girls) (if it isn't robbed) as a fundamental
human delivery posture that allows the birth canal to open the "extra" up to
30%.

Maybe this MD/DC public discussion could start at the new FSU College of
Chiropractic...

KEY POINT: Women don't have to squat to allow their birth canals to open
the "extra" up to 30%. Side-lying works just fine - so does kneeling - so
does hands-and-knees, etc.

Interestingly, the Great Birth Robbery (routine denial of the "extra" up to
30%) was in effect blamed on The Great Squat Robbery - in British
obstetrician Jason Gardosi, MD's 1989 Lancet "randomised controlled trial of
squatting" - where nobody squatted...

Job Description
Dr. Shepherd is charged with the development and implementation of the

\
http://med.fsu.edu/FacultyProfile.as...net.Shephe rd

Janet,

One of the first things FSU chiro students will learn about spinal adjusting
is when NOT to adjust.

You don't pull on the baby's spine with hands, forceps or vacuums (or push
on it with oxytocin and Cytotec) with the birth canal closed the "extra" up
to 30%.

Please have FSU's clerkship faculty in obstetrics and OB medical student
clerks stop the surgical and spinal manipulation felonies at FSU-affiliated
maternity hospitals.

Some babies are dying from MD spinal manipulation.

It's a chiropractic emergency.

Time to adjust (educate).

The Florida Board of Governors apparently wants no part of the job...

FLORIDA CHANCELLOR DEBRA AUSTIN


On December 2, 2004, I asked the Florida Board of Governors to stop Florida
OBs from closing birth canals etc.


See Birth authority of the Florida Board of Governors?
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3000


On December 13, 2004, Florida Chancellor Debra Austin replied:


"Dear Dr. Gastaldo...Thank you for your recent email to Mrs. Carolyn
Roberts, Chair, Florida Board of Governors, regarding the authority of the
Florida Board of Governors. The Board of Governors, by virtue of Article
IX, Florida Constitution, is to "operate, regulate, control, and be fully
responsible for the management of the whole university system." It is not
responsible for the development of curriculum within the medical schools,
which is the responsibility of the medical school faculty."


Janet, it seems to me that the Florida Board of Governors is only authorized
to question/scrutinize the MANAGEMENT of the Florida State University/FSU
Chiropractic School...

When the vote is held (this coming Jan. 27?)...

If any member of the Florida Board of Governors brings up CURRICULUM (spinal
manipulation or anything related to spinal manipulation) - I hope Florida
chiros (and Florida State
University MD faculty) INSTANTLY bring up the fact that the most prolific
spinal
manipulators in Florida university system are *MDs* - specifically obstetric
surgeons - who are fraudulently increasing their surgical load.

After all, as indicated above, Florida
obstetric surgeons are slicing vaginas and abdomens en masse -
surgically/fraudulently inferring they are doing/have done everything
possible to open birth canals - even as they CLOSE birth canals up to 30%.


Incidentally, Florida obstetric surgeons are likely also temporarily
asphyxiating babies/fraudulently performing
American medicine's most frequent surgery of all.

See Dr. Hollands' glib response ( umbilical cord clamping)
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3166

Florida Governors who are "fully responsible for the management of
the whole university system" are **looking the other way** (Chancellor
Debra in the lead!) as MDs GRUESOMELY (sometimes fatally) manipulate most
babies' spines at birth - or so I gathered from Chancellor Debra's email...

I will cc this post to Chancellor Debra via . Maybe I
totally misunderstood her email and the Florida Board of Governors is right
now moving to stop Florida's medical schools from teaching medical students
to "perform" the obvious OB felonies....

Incidentally, this non-spinal birth-canal-closing MD subluxation is present
in MANY (all?) American medical schools.

One campus in the UC system (UCLA is my undergrad alma mater/Biochem) is
explicitly promoting birth-canal-closing/semisitting...

So I'm protesting there too...

See Pediatricians: What about DURING birth?
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3142

See also: Distinguished OBSTETRIC Teaching at UCLA?
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3153

In my state of residence, Oregon's only medical school (OHSU) is also
explicitly promoting birth-canal-closing/semisitting.

So I'm protesting there as well...

See Birth child abuse: Oregon's only medical school (OHSU)
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2986


Janet Shepherd M.D. FSU Education Director, Obstetrics and Gynecology...

Please encourage FSU to change the curriculum immediately if you are
teaching in accord with FSU's "definitive" text Williams Obstetrics that it
is OK for women to birth with their birth canals closed the "extra" up to
30%,

Please encourage FSU faculty members to encourage the Florida Board of
Governors (via Chancellor Debra via ) to give the go
ahead for establishing the FSU chiro college.

Please work to make sure FSU teaches ALL of chiropractic's subluxation
theory - including the fact that NON-spinal subluxations (e.g., The Four OB
Lies) require non-spinal chiropractic adjustments (like this email).

One last note: I got the Founder of chiropractic's fundamental chiropractic
hypothesis published in Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary. (27th,
28th, 29th editions - 1988, 1994, 2000) only to have chiropractic trade
unions have it censored.

Chiropractic makes a LOT of sense when one grok's the Founder's fundamental
chiropractic hypothesis.

For some odd reason, American chiropractic physicians want to focus on
VERTEBRAL SUBLUXATION (or the musculoskeletal system) and ignore simple
causes - sort of like MDs like to focus on OBSTETRIC EMERGENCIES and ignore
simple causes...

I'm really hoping Florida DCs and MDs can prevent medical error together.

Thanks for reading.

Sincerely,

Todd

Dr. Gastaldo
