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? FSU = Florida State University Wayne C. Wolfson, DC Chairman Florida Board of Chiropractic Medicine via WILLIAM MARCH also via: 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? Dr. Gene Jenkins (Tallahassee) Dr. Trudi Vogel (Port Orange) Dr. William Perman (Boca Raton) Dr. Salvatore LaRusso (Wellington) Mr. Norris Barr (Tallahassee) - consumer member Mrs. Vicky Kirby (Winter Springs) - consumer Mr. Joe Baker, Jr. - Executive Director Ms. Vicki Grant - Program Administrator Copied to: Ian Rogers, MD Pensacola Plastic Surgery 801 West Avery Street Pensacola, FL 32501 850-438-5625 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..." http://www.psych.org/psych_pract/eth...nions53101.cfm 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... See Two robberies: educators can stop them http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3047 See also: The Great Squat Robbery and UCI's Harry B. Skinner, MD, PhD http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/3146 Copied to: Janet Shepherd M.D. FSU Education Director, Obstetrics and Gynecology 850-645-1227 Appointment: Associate Professor, Department of Clinical Sciences Courses: Obstetrics & Gynecology Job Description Dr. Shepherd is charged with the development and implementation of the gynecology and obstetrics curriculum for third- and fourth-year clerkships. \ 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 This post will be archived for global access in the Google usenet archive.
