So to sum it up, [see Figure 22] we had 45
kids, the symptoms resolved in 22 out of 45. Now resolved
means, we looked at 16 parameters (we call them
prognosticators)
we look at 16 parameters from our database and if all 16 are
met then thats called resolved. If its been improved it
means that even if 1/16 has not gotten better but the
majority has we say improved, thats 19 out of the 45.
So in
4 out of those patients, meaning a little less than 10% they
didnt get better and our concern was at that time was

| "why?" And it still is. Go back
to the root cause, something hasnt gone right. Could be the
scarring, reformation of bone, or something else might have
happened or they became unstable and we found that if you
went back youd be able to correct the situation in 2 out of
those 4. My usual line up is that if Im given 30 minutes
to talk Ill try to take only 20 minutes to give you chances
if you have any burning questions.
Thank you. |
