OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this case report was to describe the observation of the manipulation of the fourth rib followed by the reproducible, rapid return of heart rate to normal in a patient with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
CLINICAL FEATURES: A male patient had paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. He was evaluated using standard methods of palpation. He was followed over a 6-year period.
INTERVENTION AND OUTCOME: The patient was treated during episodes of supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) with instrument-assisted manipulation of the fourth rib without treatment of any other segments. Tachycardia was eliminated after rib manipulation within less than 2 minutes. Over a 6-year period, effective control of episodes of SVT was consistently achieved associated with manipulation of the fourth rib.
CONCLUSIONS: This case study is suggestive of a relationship between SVT and misalignment of the fourth rib. Controlled studies are necessary to validate this observation.
