A systematic review by Lam et al. (2019) concludes that osteopathic manipulative treatments (OMT) lead to positive patient experience (PE) and satisfaction (PZ) and represent a good treatment option for certain conditions. Positive effects were demonstrated both qualitatively and quantitatively. OMT was perceived as patient-centered, holistic, and thorough. (Patient experience usually refers to objective events or facts; while patient satisfaction, perception, and expectation are measures that relate to the patient’s subjective evaluation.) For those interested in the exact data:<\/p>\n
Methods<\/strong>: A comprehensive literature search was conducted in seven databases: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central, Cinahl, AMED, Osteopathic Research Web, and OSTMED.DR, to identify primary research that assessed the PE or PZ of OMT. The results from relevant studies were summarized.Results<\/strong>: The literature search identified 322 references, of which 16 were included in this review, comprising 7 qualitative, 8 quantitative, and 1 mixed-methods study. The quantitative studies, using various research instruments, reported on a range of PE and PZ aspects, with the data predominantly showing positive patient responses. The qualitative studies revealed patients’ perceptions of OMT. These can be summarized as patient-centered, holistic, thorough, and as a treatment option that could be effective for certain conditions. Furthermore, OMT is a method that offers a good partnership between clinicians and patients. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A systematic review by Lam et al.
