Dimension 2: Clinical Presentations

CLINICAL PRESENTATIONS represent the manner in which a particular patient, group of patients, or community presents to osteopathic physicians. The emphasis within each clinical presentation is on high-frequency and high-impact categories based on evidence from osteopathic medical practice. Each clinical presentation is further categorized into specific topics.

Clinical presentations may include presentations of patients across all relevant age categories, from special populations, and in varied clinical settings, and the ways in which patients present for osteopathic medical care.
