Osteopathic Manipulative Medicine COMAT Exam
The OMM COMAT tests many aspects of osteopathic principles and practice in a variety of ways. It is essential to focus on studying the high yield OMM topics because it can otherwise become quite a burden.
About the OMM COMAT Exam
This OMM question bank covers those important topics in detail through high yield questions and thorough explanations to get you prepared to honor the OMM COMAT efficiently and effectively. One of the important topics is the principles of OMM and why OMM works. This includes the mechanisms of somatic dysfunctions (e.g., Fryette’s Laws and craniosacral motion) and the mechanisms of the techniques that are used to treat somatic dysfunctions.
You’ll also cover the high yield findings during the physical examination which are important to identify in the question stems and answer choices. Examples of this include standing and seated flexion tests, viscerosomatic reflexes, somatovisceral reflexes, and Chapman reflex points.
Management is another high yield section that you’ll want to master before you take the test. You’ll learn how to choose the appropriate osteopathic medicine techniques based on different patient presentations, indications and contraindications of the techniques, proper patient and physician positioning, and the important points for each direct and indirect osteopathic treatment. This includes facilitated positional release, muscle energy, HVLA, articulatory, counterstrain, soft tissue, and cranial OMM, just to name a few.
Spend your time efficiently and effectively by doing high yield questions with thorough explanations specifically designed to prepare you for the COMAT.
