Patient's question:
During this time, I've been very sad because I carefully checked and found chronic cor pulmonale. I'm sad that my child might also get it, sad that I might die in the future. How could this happen? So, I want to ask, what are the main criteria for diagnosing chronic cor pulmonale?Doctor's answer:
The main basis for diagnosing chronic cor pulmonale is the recurrence of symptoms such as pulmonary artery hypertension and right ventricular hypertrophy in the patient. It is especially important to pay attention to the recurrence of these issues and not take them lightly. Actively seek hospital treatment for proper surgical care, and there is no need to worry too much. In daily life, pay more attention to rest, sun protection, drink more water, eat more vegetables and fruits, and avoid crowded places.
