squad51medic Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 Not sure if it was answered, but what was he doing 12-24hrs before this condition began? Does he take any meds regularly? Is there any postition of comfort that helps him breathe easier? Did he have any recent (within 30-60 days) surgery's. I'm gonna rule out scuba diving, he's in Denver. Perhaps, he skies? High elevations?
Andrewtx Posted July 15, 2006 Posted July 15, 2006 What was the patient doing the day before? Is there any heart desease that runs in the family? What is NKDA? Over excertion of muscle movement? NKDA = No known drug allergies
chbare Posted July 15, 2006 Author Posted July 15, 2006 Good job on getting the history everybody. This patient is indeed suffering from a diving injury. He just had to get a quick dive in before getting on the plane. Take care, chbare.
