"In its current form, habits and environment, American healthcare is
incapable of providing the public with the quality healthcare it deserves" --Institute of Medicine's Committee on Quality of Healthcare in America quoted by Oregon's PEBB (PEBB employees listed below) http://egov.oregon.gov/DAS/PEBB/visionfaq.shtml In its current form, habits and environment, American healthcare involves various MD crimes - massive crimes... Mass child abuse: MDs are knowingly closing birth canals up to 30% and *keeping* birth canals closed when babies' shoulders get stuck. Sound crazy? PROOF below. PREGNANT WOMEN: For simple instructions on how to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%, see the very end of this post. (LADIES: You can help protect your VAGINAS too. See episiotomy discussion below.) Since it's obvious child abuse, will MDs report MDs? North Carolina attorney/doctor ROBERT A. BITTERMAN, MD, JD might... Robert's employer THE CAROLINAS HEALTHCARE SYSTEM says: "ANY person or institution who has cause to suspect that a child is being abused or neglected is required by law to report." http://www.carolinas.org/services/wo...childabuse.cfm (emphasis added) Robert, please report. See my note to you at the end of this post. Maybe NORTH CAROLINA'S doctors of chiropractic will report? After all, the child abuse is SPINAL MANIPULATION CHILD ABUSE BY OBs... With birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%, OBs are violently pushing on tiny spines (with oxytocin, Cytotec, PGE2) and gruesomely pulling (with hands, forceps vacuums)... Sometimes OBs pull so hard they rip spinal nerves out of tiny spinal cords. Some babies die. Some babies are paralyzed. Most babies "only" have their spines gruesomely wrenched. ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal senselessly closed up to 30%. North Carolina's Marc Gottlieb, DC suggested PREVENTION of birth trauma in 1993. See Gottlieb MS. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 1993 Oct;16(8):537-43, quoted below. CHIROS: WFC's Attorney David Chapman-Smith (encouraged by DCs) could possibly get the **World Health Organization** interested in preventing vertebral subluxations! OTHER MD CRIMES (mass IMMUNOLOGIC child abuse for example) I wrote that MDs are fraudulently promoting vaccinations by claiming IN EFFECT that vaccination works 100% of the time... HILLARY ISRAELI, VMD "responded": "No MD worth his or her salt would ever make such a claim. I have seen PLENTY of MDs for vaccinations and not a one has ever made such a claim. In fact, far from it. http://groups.google.com/groups?selm...&output=gplain Hillary, MANY things MDs do make them "worth their salt," but fraudulent vaccination promotion is not one of those things... Here again is the text you snipped... [I wrote it to Jeff P.Utz, MD, pediatrician...] ....MDs are claiming IN EFFECT that vaccination works 100% of the time.... Vaccine-exempt children are sent home (protected) during disease outbreaks - but vaccinated-but-not-immunized children are NOT so protected... MDs are *endangering vaccinated children* as they IN EFFECT claim that vaccination works 100% of the time! If vaccine exempt children are worth protecting during disease outbreaks, so are *vaccinated* children not immunized by their vaccinations. [ALL children must be sent home (protected) during disease outbreaks - not just vaccine exempt children. The laws must be changed.] Vaccination does NOT always work - vaccination is NOT immunization - vaccination is ATTEMPTED immunization. Text above is from Pediatrics is science! LOL! (Jeff the pediatrician again...) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2525 REGARDING IMMUNIZATION... MDs ARE SUBSTANTIALLY **ANTI**-IMMUNIZATION... MDs are failing to tell the world that breastfeeding women scan for pathogens and manufacture specific IMMUNIZATIONS which they inject with their breasts daily. MDs are thereby lying by omission effectively DENYING massive numbers of babies massive numbers of free daily immunizations. EXAMPLE: The Carolinas HealthCare System indicates that breastmilk is mere FOOD, as in, "The popularity of breastfeeding has been gaining through the last few decades, and it's no wonder, considering all of the benefits of this natural food source." http://www.carolinas.org/services/womenchild/ Breastmilk is a free daily IMMUNIZATION source that reportedly makes MD needle vaccinations work better! How hard would it be for Carolinas HealthCare System to say that?! How hard would it be for ALL HealthCare Systems to say that?! Doing so would make breastfeeding popularity SKYROCKET What woman - explicitly informed that she can IMMUNIZE her baby daily - is going to fail to at least ATTEMPT to do so - esp. since breastfeeding reportedly makes vaccinations work better? MDs are missing a GOLDEN opportunity to make the immunization rate AND the vaccination rate skyrocket! WHY?! Via their lie of omission, MDs are committing mass IMMUNOLOGIC child abuse - mass immunologic neglect - CULTURE-WIDE. Mass PHYSICAL child abuse This mass IMMUNOLOGIC child abuse by MDs MORE physical child abuse by MDs (in addition to closing birth canals up to 30%, discussed further below)... American MD-pediatricians (and MD-obstetricians) engage in mass ripping and slicing of infant penises - sometimes fatally so. The medical euphemism is "routine infant circumcision." According to some nurses and MDs... INFANT CIRCUMCISION IS A BRUTAL, BARBARIC PRACTICE... "After years of strapping babies down for this brutal procedure and listening to their screams, we couldn't take it any longer." [Sperlich BK, Conant M. Am J Nurs (Jun)1994:16. http://www.cirp.org/nrc/] "Nursing alert...[N]urses must consider their participation in a surgical procedure that involves no anesthesia to be a barbaric practice." (p. 205) Donna L. Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing [1997] "[S]till all too often barbaric...[M.D.s]...would never allow older children or adults to be subjected to such practices, nor would they submit to it themselves..." [Veteran circumcision cheerleader Colonel Thomas E. Wiswell, MD in article in the April 24, 1997 New England Journal of Medicine] THINK ABOUT IT AS INFANTS SCREAM AND WRITHE AND BLEED... "One-half to one-third of the skin on the...penile shaft is sliced off." http://www.infocirc.org/MensHlth.htm (paraphrasing Ronald Goldman, PhD, author of Circumcision: The Hidden Trauma) "The average circumcision cuts off what would grow into about 12 square inches of sexually sensitive skin." http://www.infocirc.org/MensHlth.htm (quoting Ronald Goldman, PhD, author of Circumcision: The Hidden Trauma) In 1987, American MD-pediatricians perpetuated the mass ripping and slicing of infant penises by perpetuating medicine's phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology. (Incredibly, the journal Pediatrics STILL hasn't acknowledged that AAP perpetuated phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology in late 1987; indeed, I think it was 1999 before pediatricians finally decided for sure that babies can feel pain...) In late 1987, saw American medicine's phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology perpetuated uncorrected in AAP's journal Pediatrics. Since there were/are NO medical indications for American medicine's most frequent surgical behavior toward males... 1. I called for an END to the obvious mass child abuse. 2. I also called for a religious exemption from the child abuse statutes for Jewish circumcision... A religious exemption for Jews would have finally officially/legally ACKNOWLEDGED that routine infant circumcision is child abuse... Pediatricians understandably (though unconscionably) resorted to anti-Semitism... In Jan 1988 American pediatricians came out against ALL religious exemptions - i.e. - American pediatricians tried to hide behind religion. The pediatricians were saying in effect: if we MDs are made to stop, Jews must be made to stop...it was anti-Semitism. In Feb 1988 the pediatricians came out in favor of anonymity for PERPETRATORS of child abuse. In March 1988 the California Medical Association ignored its own Scientific Board and by voice vote instantly created "an effective public health measure" out of "no medical indication" routine infant circumcision. NOTE: In AAP's subsequent official statements on circumcision, AAP mentioned neither CMA's new "effective public health measure" nor the fact that it was declared in March 1988, just months after AAP's perpetuation of phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology had been exposed. This KEY fact *must* be mentioned whenever MDs publish their "potential medical benefits" game. For further details... See Cosmetic body piercing/infant circumcision http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2465 See also: Chiro care of baby penises (also: Dr. Poland never sued Dr. Gastaldo) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2430 American MDs STILL make most male infants scream and writhe and bleed and sometimes die or lose their penises... American MDs still continue to fraudulently PROMOTE their grisly most frequent surgical behavior toward males... Alanis and Lucidi [2004] of the Carolinas Medical Center recently told a bald lie: "[i]mportant research has shed light on real medical benefits of circumcision." REAL medical benefits? WRONG. Alanis and Lucidi [2004] "TARGET AUDIENCE: Obstetricians & Gynecologists...After completion of this article, the reader should be able to describe the evolution of circumcision...[and]...list the POTENTIAL benefits of circumcision..." ---Alanis MC, Lucidi RS^^^. Obstet Gynecol Surv. 2004 May;59(5):379-95. PubMed abstract (emphasis added) ^^^Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Carolinas Medical Center, Charlotte, North Carolina, USA. "POTENTIAL" medical benefits are NOT "real medical benefits." "Potential" medical benefits was the grisly game begun by the American Academy of Pediatrics after exposure of the phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology. See again: Chiro care of baby penises (also: Dr. Poland never sued Dr. Gastaldo) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2430 Alanis and Lucidi [2004] wrote in their abstract: "Because of advances in the understanding of the anatomy of the foreskin and pain conditioning in infants, prevailing attitudes have changed about anesthesia and analgesia during the procedure." Wrong again. Advances in the understanding of "pain conditioning in infants" have NOT changed "prevailing attitudes about anesthesia and analgesia during the procedure." The prevailing medical attitude is STILL: If a parent consents - infants can be made to scream and writhe and bleed through procedure for which there are no medical indications - and there is no need to give anesthesia or analgesia! This prevailing medical attitude goes against state child abuse laws and stated AAP ethics: "[T]he pediatrician's responsibilities to his or her patient exist independent of parental desires... "...A[n infant's screaming writhing and bleeding obviously constitutes the - TDG] patient's reluctance or refusal to assent [and - TDG] should...carry considerable weight when the proposed intervention is not essential to his or her welfare and/or can be deferred without substantial risk... "[T]hose who care for children need to provide for measures to solicit assent and to attend to possible abuses of 'raw' power over children when ethical conflicts occur." AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS Informed Consent, Parental Permission, and Assent in Pediatric Practice(RE9510) Pediatrics Volume 95, Number 2 February, 1995, p. 314-317 http://www.aap.org/policy/00662.html In 1980, one pediatrician wrote: "[Routine infant circumcision] constitutes child abuse...an acknowledged hazard to health." [Michael Katz, MD: Letter. AJDC, 1980] In 1986, another wrote: "What a terrible indictment...guilty of failing those for whom we have chosen to be advocates." [Finkel KC: The failure to report child abuse. AJDC, 1986;140:329-330] JEWISH RITUAL CIRCUMCISION As noted above, I am in favor of a Jewish exemption from the child abuse statutes. I am convinced that observant Jews sincerely believe that a God wants them to cut off their sons' foreskins... "[T]he LORD met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son's foreskin and touched Moses' feet with it...So the LORD let him alone...(Genesis 4:24-26)" http://www.holyspiritinteractive.net...y/zipporah.asp KEY POINTS: The Jewish ritual is FAST and the original Jewish ritual left most of the foreskin on the penis. The late Edward Wallerstein won an American Medical Writers Award for gathering much of the historical evidence in "Circumcision: An American Health Fallacy" [NY: Springer 1980] Later, Wallerstein wrote of the minimal ancient practice in a 1983 article: "Originally, the surgery involved only cutting the tip of the foreskin. This was changed in the Hellenic Period to prevent [Jews from] elongat[ing] the foreskin stump in order to appear uncircumcised." [Wallerstein E. Humanistic Judaism 1983;11(4):46] Fortunately, some modern rabbis (hotly contested by other rabbis) offer American Jews an ideological basis not to circumcise... According to Rabbi MN Kertner: "[Circumcision] is not a sacrament which inducts the infant into Judaism: his birth does that" [Rabbi MN Kertner. What is a Jew? New York: Macmillan, 1973,1993] NOTE: Adult Jews who wish to remain uncircumcised are accepted under Israel's Law of Return, which indicates that even "religious" circumcision is a CHOICE which may legitimately be postponed until adulthood and beyond... And according to Rabbi Michael Lerner: "The infliction of unnecessary pain is precisely what Judaism is designed to fight against, so it makes little sense for us to be the perpetrators on our children." [Rabbi Michael Lerner. Jewish Renewal NY: G.P. Putnam's Sons 1994:387]) NOTE ALSO: RABBIS CAN CHANGE THE BIBLICAL RULES Hershel Shanks, editor of Moment, has noted that "the rabbis of the Talmud OFTEN changed the Biblical rules" (emphasis added): "A friend...[argued]...with regard to the Orthodox rabbis' pronouncement declaring Reform and Conservative not Judaism...[that]...[i]t's all traceable to the [U.S.] Reform decision nearly 15 years ago to adopt patrilineality - a child born of a Jewish father, if raised as a Jew, is Jewish.... "....[i]n Biblical times, Jewish descent was determined by the Jewishness of the father...The rabbis changed that 2,000 year-old tradition...Indeed the rabbis of the Talmud OFTEN changed the Biblical rules (emphasis added)..." [Shanks H. Tolerance v. Halachah. Moment. (Jun)1997;22(3):6, 8-9] Modern rabbis could switch back to "tip" circumcisions - or even to NO circumcisions - if they really wanted to. Again, I still favor a religious exemption for Jews. Jews do NOT circumcise for medical reasons - they circumcise because their God wants them to - at least this is what they sincerely believe - and I believe them. In discussing "the evolution of circumcision," I hope Alanis and Lucidi mentioned the minimal ancient practice AND the anti-Semitic, child abuse-perpetuating anti-science that occurred (see above) when I exposed pediatricians perpetuating phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology back in 1987... I will cc Alanis and Lucidi.... Copied to Mark Alanis, MD http://www.carolinas.org/education/m.../Residents.cfm Copied to Richard Scott Lucidi, M.D. http://www.uthscsa.edu/obgyn/res-faculty.html BTW, American medicine's $200 million dollar per year most frequent surgical behavior toward males SHOULD have ended billions of dollars worth of infant screams ago - back in 1987 when I pointed out AAP's perpetuation of phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology. NOTE: There is a $400 million dollar per year figure at: http://www.infocirc.org/MensHlth.htm Paradoxically, ending the surgery (technically it is a mutilation since there are no medical benefits) PRESERVES it as a CHOICE American males can make for themselves in adulthood. The brazen ongoing medical coverup - babies be damned - is not really so incredible when one realizes that routine infant circumcision is actually sexual assault... In California - far less serious child sexual assault can get **non**-MDs six years in prison. Just how serious is the sexual assault euphemistically known as routine infant circumcision? Following the ripping apart of penile tissue - following the partial penile amputation - sometimes babies lose their entire penises or their lives. When a child loses his life because of the crime, criminal negligence has escalated to criminally negligent homicide. Routine infant circumcision IS sexual assault/abuse. In California, *penetration* of a genital orifice is child sexual abuse. Routine infant circumcision involves penetration and AMPUTATION of a genital orifice (the preputial niche). The Carolinas HealthCare System is set up to stop child sexual abuse... "At the [Carolinas HealthCare] Pediatric Resource Center, children suspected of being victims of sexual abuse have a clinic dedicated to their needs." http://www.carolinas.org/services/wo...source_ctr.cfm "[T]he data the [Carolinas HealthCare] staff collects can help determine if charges should be filed against an alleged perpetrator..." http://www.carolinas.org/services/womenchild/ Alanis and Lucidi are promoting child sexual assault by fraudulently claiming there are "real medical benefits." I've only seen their abstract, but I suspect their discussion of "the evolution of circumcision" does not include the fact that the largest state medical trade union ignored its own Scientific Board and abruptly declared "an effective public health measure" after exposure of American medicine's phony "babies can't feel pain" neurology. See above. Since the Carolinas HealthCare Pediatric Resource Center collects data, I will send this data to them via various persons, including Mark Alanis, MD CAROLINAS MEDICAL CENTER ONE OF AMERICA'S BEST HOSPITALS... "...Carolinas Medical Center has been named by US News & World Report to its annual edition of America's Best Hospitals...'We are understandably proud of this national recognition,' said Michael Tarwater, President and CEO of Carolinas HealthCare System." http://www.carolinas.org/facilities/...cmc/USNews.cfm I will copy Carolinas HealthCare System President and CEO MICHAEL TARWATER via Polly Baker, RN, MPH Assistant Vice President Carolinas HealthCare System phone: 336-6441 fax: 336-4709 MICHAEL TARWATER: America's best hospitals will want to immediately end mass child sexual assault by MDs. If you end the mass sexual assault that is occurring in your hospitals, you will instantly stop mass infant screams and save America $200 million dollars per year - twice as much if the $400 million dollar per year figure is correct. See URL above. Michael, as indicated at the Carolinas HealthCare System web site... The first step in ending the mass child sexual assault is to REPORT it...and ANY person or institution is required by law to report suspected child abuse... BEGIN Carolinas HealthCare System info on child abuse reporting... Any person or institution who has cause to suspect that a child is being abused or neglected is required by law to report. If you make a report in good faith, you will receive immunity from possible civil or criminal liability that might result from your report. Failure to report suspected case of child abuse can be punished as a misdemeanor. Why you should report child abuse Reporting suspected child abuse can be the first important step in stopping the abuse and protecting the child from future harm. By reporting, you are helping the family get services and help that they need. Failing to report suspected cases of child abuse may result in continuing abuse. Abused children may carry the trauma associated with the abuse throughout their entire lives unless treatment, assistance and support are provided. Because child abuse rarely stops without intervention and help, it is the law that every citizen report suspected child abuse and neglect. You can help stop the cycle of abuse by notifying your county Department of Social Services (DSS), Child Protective Services Division, when you suspect that a child is being abused or neglected. Your report can be anonymous. You do not have to give your name when making a report. If a report is not accepted for investigation, and the reporter still has concerns, he/she may request a review of the agency's decision by contacting the agency. If the decision is made by DSS not to file a petition and the reporter does not agree, he/she can request a review by the district attorney. How to make a report You can make a report of child abuse by calling, writing or visiting your county Deparmtent of Social Services, the Child Protective Services Division. The address and phone number can be found in the front of the local phone book in the county government section, or by calling 800-354-KIDS or 1-919-733-2580. http://www.carolinas.org/services/wo...childabuse.cfm END Carolinas HealthCare System info on child abuse reporting... AN APOLOGY... One mandated child abuse reporter in Forest Grove, Oregon recently acknowledged to me that if she so much as SUSPECTS child abuse she is mandated to report immediately. (She gestured toward her telephone to indicate that she is required to make an immediate telephone call.) She was astonished to learn from me that MDs had been saying babies can't feel pain. She was further astonished when I informed her that immediately after I exposed the phony neurology MDs declared their grisly most freqent surgical behavior toward males "an effective public health measure," etc. (See above.) BUT - after learning of the mass child abuse - she told me in effect that, since we can't stop the war in Iraq - mass child abuse by MDs need not be reported. I pointed out that her "war in Iraq" argument is preposterous since babies NEARBY are being abused - i.e. - babies at nearby hospitals are being tied to boards and made to scream and writhe and bleed for no medical reason. She countered by saying (in effect) that the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act/HIPAA would make it impossible to report because of patient confidentiality. She indicated that because of HIPAA she can't know which specific infant is having his penis ripped and sliced - and therefore she cannot report. Moments later - when confronted - she said that she *hadn't* said that HIPAA makes it impossible to report the mass child abuse by MDs - so maybe I just misunderstood her. NOTE: This mandated child abuse reporter's "war in Iraq" excuse may be closer to the truth than we know - closer to the truth as to why obvious mass child abuse is being ignored by law enforcement... There are global implications... See Wild circumcision rhetoric of MDs/Israel's history http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2398 And who knows - given the gravity of the obvious MD crimes against mothers and babies with global implications... Maybe HIPAA is part of the medical cover-up. Stranger things... I frightened this poor woman. I got angry. I apologize. I have been angry for many years. For good reason I think. She has helped me move on - a truly therapeutic encounter. I suppose I will always react - as I have done in this post - to perpetuation of the grisly "potential medical benefits" game being played by MDs. (See my discussion of Alanis and Lucidi [2004] above.) But I really do feel like I am moving on - thanks to her - and thanks to the patience of the woman who brought me to her. Both women finally helped me understand that I must concede - after so many years - that MDs are above the law in regard to their mass ripping and slicing of infant penises. There are some things I won't accomplish in life. I will always have this HOPE: That the child abuse laws will be used to end the various MD crimes - or better - that MDs will just stop on their own. The MD crimes are costing Americans BILLIONS of dollars per year... Interesting quote from Oregon's Public Employee Benefit Board (PEBB) website... "In its current form, habits and environment, American healthcare is incapable of providing the public with the quality healthcare it deserves" --Institute of Medicine's Committee on Quality of Healthcare in America quoted by Oregon's PEBB (PEBB employees listed below) http://egov.oregon.gov/DAS/PEBB/visionfaq.shtml PEBB says: "From member to provider to carrier, the system is broken. PEBB is not confident that the current marketplace can offer a tangible statewide solution for the short or long term." Maybe it's time for the system to stop paying MDs billions of dollars per year to commit mass child abuse? Maybe stopping mass child abuse by MDs could become part of PEBB's Vision for 2007 (part of which is being implemented now)? I'll copy PEBB via... Administrator (503) 378-3899 Becky Johnson Executive Assistant (503) 378-6296 Diana Jones Project Coordinator (503) 378-3958 Isabel Joslen Agency Liaison (503) 373-7155 Cheryle Lawrence Contracts Coordinator (503) 378-8420 Kathy Loretz Operations Director (503) 373-0800 Barb Merrifield Benefit Manager (503) 378-3965 Ingrid Norberg Communications Coordinator (503) 378-4313 Susan Pritt Financial Coordinator (503) 378-6883 Amy Sanford Customer Service Coordinator (503) 378-5777 Steve Schafer Technolgy Project Manager (503) 378-4931 Carol Dolan Benefits Counselor (503) 378-8413 Kellie Hargis Benefits Counselor (503) 378-8490 Sandy Johnson Benefits Counselor (503) 378-8358 Zue Matchett Benefits Counselor II (503) 378-8423 Sharon Sheehan Benefits Counselor (503) 378-8031 Back to veterinarian Hillary Israeli, VMD... Hillary, MDs do many wonderful medical and surgical things - but they have a LEGAL MONOPOLY on doing wonderful medical and surgical things - a legal monopoly they are ABUSING to *grossly* abuse (and sometimes kill) children for profit. MDs are NOT "worth their salt" when they abuse babies - and they aren't worth their salt when they fraudulently promote their vaccinations. One last matter regarding pediatrician Jeff... Did you see where pediatrician Jeff said in effect that he can't help stop obstetricians from closing birth canals up to 30% and gruesomely manipulating most babies' spines - because he is a pediatrician!? See Breastfeeding news from Sweden (also: Pediatrician 'responds' to Gastaldo) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2524 As indicated above, 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. Pardons in advance will allow MDs to keep doing their valid medical work, making money to pay the inevitable civil damages. Thanks for reading, Sincerely, Todd Dr. Gastaldo PS PROOF that OBs and CNMwives are routinely closing birth canals up to 30%... That semisitting and dorsal close the birth canal is simple biomechanics. See Gastaldo TD. Letter. Birth 1992;19(4):230. Here's my source for the 30% figure... "[T]he outlet increases with moulding by approximately 20-30 per cent." --Russell JGB. Moulding of the pelvic outlet. J Obstet Gynaec Brit Cwlth 1969;76:817-20. NOTE: In 1973, Ohlsen verified Russell's 20% figure on Borell and Fernstrom's 1957 intrapartum x-rays. Ohlsen pointed out that the authors of Williams Obstetrics were claiming that the pelvic diameters *don't change* during delivery (!) - so the authors of Williams Obstetrics decided (erroneously) that dorsal delivery widens! Interestingly, J. Whitridge Williams, MD, the original author of Williams Obstetrics had demonstrated MASSIVE amounts of change in pelvic outlet diameter change at-term - and the just mentioned 1957 intrapartum x-ray study accorded with the average amount of pelvic outlet diameter change that Williams found clinically... See: http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html Jason Gardosi, MD, director of the British National Health Service/NHS West Midlands Perinatal Institute/WMPI states the grisly biomechanics of the semirecumbent delivery position (semisitting): "...the weight of the mother is in part taken on the sacrum which is therefore pushed upwards, thus decreasing the antero-posterior diameter of the pelvic outlet..." http://www.wmpi.net/reviews/oe/oe_shoulder_dystocia.htm The funny thing is, Jason Gardosi, MD also *recommends* semisitting (closing the birth canal) - or used to! "The second stage...You might want to remain in bed with your back propped up with pillows...As you push, try to let yourself 'open up' below..." http://www.preg.info/book/chapter11.htm NOTE: Jason Gardosi, MD and his fellow British OB pal Malcolm Griffiths once got me censored from an international OB/GYN listserv - but fortunately not before two of my posts were archived thereon: http://forums.obgyn.net/forums/ob-gy...9707/0128.html http://forums.obgyn.net/ob-gyn-l/OBGYNL.9707/0153.html Anyone interested in some entertaining obstetric reading, check out Jason's 1989 Lancet "randomised controlled trial of squatting" - where nobody squatted... See Sarah Key's huge balls (also: Kids can SQUAT motionless for hours)... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/2084 MORE PROOF According to the Merck Manual: "When shoulder dystocia occurs...the mother's thighs are hyperflexed to increase the diameter of the pelvic outlet..." http://www.merck.com/mrkshared/mmanu...er253/253g.jsp WHY are OBs and CNMwives (nurse midwives) waiting until the head is out and shoulders get stuck before giving the baby maximum pelvic outlet diameter? WHY are OBs and CNMwives forcing babies' heads through birth canals senselessly closed up to 30%? WHY are OBs and CNMwives KEEPING birth canals closed when babies' shoulders get stuck? (Merely hyperflexing the thighs does NOT get the woman off her sacrum. This is BAD McRoberts maneuver. ON A POSITIVE NOTE: Gardosi et al.'s WMPI site (quoted above) recommends a version of GOOD McRoberts if the shoulders get stuck... http://www.wmpi.net/reviews/oe/oe_shoulder_dystocia.htm) LADIES: HELP PROTECT YOUR VAGINAS... OBs and CNMwives are slicing vaginas (euphemism "routine episiotomy") - surgically/FRAUDULENTLY inferring everything possible is being done to OPEN birth canals - even as they CLOSE birth canals - up to 30%! See Criminal medical CAM at Hawai'i's John A Burns School of Medicine http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2256 Sorry to be repetitive but... WEIRD: In 1993, the authors of Williams Obstetrics published the correct biomechanics at my request but they left in their text (in the same paragraph!) the "dorsal widens" bald lie that first called my attention to their text. The "dorsal widens" bald lie was created when Ohlsen informed the authors of Williams Obstetrics in 1973 that they were still claiming that the pelvic diameters *don't change* at delivery! ALSO WEIRD: Before Ohlsen stimulated their "dorsal widens" bald lie, the authors of Williams Obstetrics were ignoring Borell and Fernstrom's 1957 RADIOGRAPHIC demonstration that the diameters DO change - and this MANY years after (way back in 1911) J. Whitridge Williams, MD - the first author of Williams Obstetrics - clinically demonstrated 4cm of AP outlet diameter change! For details: See my Open Letter to FTC at: http://home1.gte.net/gastaldo/part2ftc.html SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS PREGNANT WOMEN: It is EASY for you to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%. Just roll onto your side as you push your baby out - or deliver on hands-and-knees, kneeling, standing, squatting, etc. BUT BEWA "Midwives...encourage...semisitting." (closing the birth canal!) --Yale CNMwifery Prof. Helen Varney. Varney's Midwifery. Sudbury, MA: Jones and Bartlett. 4th ed. 2004:839] Some MDs and MBs will let you "try" "alternative" delivery positions but will move you back to dorsal or semisitting (close your birth canal!) as you push your baby out! If your baby's shoulders get stuck OBs and CNMwives will KEEP your birth canal closed! Yale CNMwifery Prof. Varney (just cited) writes: "In the event of...shoulder dystocia...the woman should be in a lithotomy position..." (p. 839) Lithotomy position keeps the birth canal closed! So does semisitting! Talk to your CNMwife or MD or MB about this TODAY. (For further details see "Criminal medical CAM," URL above.) CNMwives/MDs/MBs: If you must push or pull - and sometimes you must - first get the woman off her sacrum - off her back/butt. SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS PREGNANT WOMEN: It is EASY for you to allow your birth canal to OPEN the "extra" up to 30%. Just roll onto your side as you push your baby out - or deliver on hands-and-knees, kneeling, standing, squatting, etc. But BEWARE... Some MDs and MBs will let you "try" "alternative" delivery positions but will move you back to dorsal or semisitting (close your birth canal!) as you push your baby out! If your baby's shoulders get stuck OBs and CNMwives will KEEP your birth canal closed! See above. Thanks for reading everyone. Sincerely, Todd Dr. Gastaldo ATTENTION CHIROS... Copied to Tom Greenway, DC, (U.K.), general secretary Federation Internationale de Chiropratique du Sport ) Copied to World Federation of Chiropractic - David Chapman-Smith, WFC secretary-general ) David, could you forward this email to every country where WFC has representation? Rand Baird, DC, MPH indicated to me that WFC can't simultaneously work on WHO's Tobacco Free Initiative and work on prevention of birth trauma - stopping obstetricians from closing birth canals up to 30%... See Strokes in babies! (also: WFC Pres. Paul F. Carey, DC) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2275 Besides me (Gastaldo), there is another DC (Gottlieb) calling for prevention of birth trauma... OBJECTIVE: A review of the medical literature was undertaken to determine cause, diagnosis, prognosis, treatment and prevention of injuries resulting from birth trauma. The primary focus was the neonate, though infant, child and adult were also considered because the effects of birth trauma can be life-long...CONCLUSION: Birth trauma remains an underpublicized and, therefore, an undertreated problem. There is a need for further documentation and especially more studies directed toward prevention. In the meantime, manual treatment of birth trauma injuries to the neuromusculoskeletal system could be beneficial to many patients not now receiving such treatment, and it is well within the means of current practice in chiropractic and manual medicine. --Gottlieb MS. J Manipulative Physiol Ther. 1993 Oct;16(8):537-43. PubMed abstract Copied to: Marc S. Gottlieb, DC via North Carolina chiros - Marc's email address may not work - if you know him please forward this. Chiros worldwide are missing a GOLDEN opportunity to save tiny lives and tiny limbs and PREVENT more vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to adjust by hand. Incidentally, check out Dorland's new definitions of "vertebral subluxation" and "straight chiropractic." (!) See Dorland's: Preventing VS by educating OBs (also: New defn of chiro in Dorland's) http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2318 See also: Vertebral genesis of functional disorders (i.e., dizziness)... http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group...t/message/2527 EPISIOTOMY... I mentioned above that... OBs are slicing vaginas en masse (euphemism "routine episiotomy") - surgically/FRAUDULENTLY inferring they are doing everything possible to OPEN the birth canal - even as they CLOSE the birth canal - up to 30%. Michael C. Klein, MD writes: "[E]pisiotomy is a deliberate second degree tear." [Birth. Letter. 2002;29(1):74] Episiotomies are usually FRAUDULENT deliberate tears and the fraud isn't just restricted to MDs fraudulently inferring they are doing everything possible to open birth canals... Some MDs are still claiming (fraudulently) that their episiotomies are *preventing* severe tears clear to the anus when in fact MDs are CAUSING severe tears clear to the anus! In 1990 the National Institutes of Health researched the issue and found that deliberate tears by MDs (episiotomies) cause fifty times MORE severe tears (tears clear to the anus) relative to leaving the vagina alone.[Shiono et al. Obstet Gynecol 1990;75(5):765-70. In Klein et al. Online J Curr Clin Trials (Jul1)1992, Doc. No. 10] What happens when MDs cause lots of vaginas to tear? Well, it hurts a lot - and women can have bladder and anal/rectal problems... Some women wear diapers for the rest of their lives. Sometimes the vagina wound gets INFECTED... Rarely, women lose their vaginas - or rather - much necrosed vulval/vaginal tissue needs to be removed... Women are being hospitalized in droves because of the vagina slashing (and possibly because of the hostile microbial environment where it is administered): "The most common diagnosis for hospitalization among all women is trauma to perineum due to childbirth." http://www.ahcpr.gov/data/hcup/factbk3/factbk3.htm WHY are we letting MDs do this?! SEMMELWEIS AND SIDE-LYING... "Because the midwives delivered women lying on their sides, [Semmelweis] began to do the same..." [Nuland SB. The Doctors' Plague. NY:WW Norton 2003:93] Side-lying allows the birth canal to open an "extra" up to 30%! PREGNANT WOMEN: It's EASY to allow your birth canal OPEN the "extra" up to 30%! Roll onto your side - or try other "alternative" delivery positions! BEWARE THOUGH: Some MDs and MBs and midwives (esp. CNMwives) will let you "try" "alternative" delivery positions but will move you back to dorsal or semisitting (close your birth canal!) as you push your baby out! Incredibly, MDs KEEP birth canals closed when babies' shoulders get stuck. See above. OBs ARE MAKING BIRTH A HIGH RISK SCENARIO... "There were 6,743 deliveries at Carolinas Medical Center during the academic year 2002-2003..." http://www.carolinas.org/education/meded/obgyn/ Robert A. Bitterman, MD, JD recently told the North Carolina House Blue Ribbon Task Force on Medical Malpractice (Feb. 10, 2004): "Obstetrician/gynecologist physicians have dropped privileges to deliver babies, so they no longer have to take care of those high risk scenarios." http://www.nccep.org/content/article...onyFeb1004.doc ATTORNEY DR. ROBERT! Obstetricians are NEEDLESSLY increasing birth risk - KNOWINGLY closing birth canals up to 30% and KEEPING birth canals closed when shoulders get stuck. Copied to Robert A. Bitterman, MD, JD FACEP at Department of Emergency Medicine at the Carolinas Medical Center, 704-355-5291 via PREGNANT WOMEN: It's EASY to allow your birth canal OPEN the "extra" up to 30%! Roll onto your side - or try other "alternative" delivery positions! BEWARE THOUGH: Some MDs and MBs and midwives (esp. CNMwives) will let you "try" "alternative" delivery positions but will move you back to dorsal or semisitting (close your birth canal!) as you push your baby out! WORSE: MDs and MBs routinely pull with forceps and vacuums with birth canals senselessly closed! Sometimes MDs and MBs pull so hard that spinal nerves are ripped out of tiny spinal cords! North Carolina chiros - and Robert A. Bitterman, MD, JD - please help stop this grisly obstetric tomfoolery. Please immediately report it as child abuse. "Any person or institution who has cause to suspect that a child is being abused or neglected is required by law to report." http://www.carolinas.org/services/wo...childabuse.cfm Thanks for reading everyone. Sincerely, Todd Dr. Gastaldo |
