A Case Report on Ground-Level Alternobaric Vertigo Due to Eustachian Tube Dysfunction With the Assistance of Conversational Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT).

Alternatenobaric vertigo (ABV) develops when the middle ear pressure (MEP) is not equal at the same height in the sea or the air. This is possible when the altitude changes. Eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD) is a common cause of ABV. In this case report, we discuss a patient who experienced repeated bouts of ground-level alternobaric vertigo (GLABV) due to ETD. We also discuss how Conversational Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) might be used in the creation of this case report. A 41-year-old male patient complained of vertigo at ground level on several occasions. His medical history included chronic sinusitis, nasal congestion, and laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR). During the physical exam, his tympanic membranes were dull and moved less. Tympanometry showed that he had an asymmetric type A and that both of his middle ears had negative pressure. The results of the audiometry test were normal, and the laryngoscopy revealed LPR. The patient was found to have GLABV because of ETD, and different treatment options, such as Eustachian tube catheterization (ETC), were thought about. This case study demonstrates how ChatGPT can be used to assist with medical documentation and the treatment of GLABV caused by ETD. Even though ChatGPT did not provide specific diagnostic or treatment recommendations for the patient's condition, it did assist the doctor in determining what was wrong and how to treat it while writing the case report. It also aided the doctor in writing the case report by allowing them to discuss it. The use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools such as ChatGPT has the potential to improve the accuracy and speed of medical documentation, thereby streamlining clinical workflows and improving patient care. Nonetheless, it is critical to consider the ethical implications of using AI in clinical practice This case study emphasizes the importance of understanding that ETD is a common cause of GLABV and how ChatGPT can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of this condition. More research is needed to fully understand how long-term AI interventions in medicine work and how reliable they are.
