    This document discusses the diagnosis of barotrauma. It outlines the anamnesis, which includes relevant patient symptoms (RPS), relevant patient diseases (RPD), and relevant patient situations or occupations (RPSOS). Common RPS include chest pain, shortness of breath, and ear problems. Common RPD include sinus infections and asthma. RPSOS considers factors like ambient temperature, air pressure conditions, and duration of exposure. Physical examination focuses on the sinuses, ears, lungs, and other areas to check for issues like hemorrhage or rupture. Supporting exams include blood tests, imaging like chest X-rays, and classification of the type of ear barotrauma.
