Editor's Recommendation for Cor pulmonale: Chronic cor pulmonale is a clinically common and frequently occurring disease that severely endangers people's health. The repeated attacks and gradual worsening of cor pulmonale not only cause significant physical and mental damage to patients but also impose a heavy burden on families. Although acute cor pulmonale is rare, it has a sudden onset and is highly dangerous. If not treated promptly, it can rapidly threaten life. Through long-term experience in treating cor pulmonale, the author has recognized that the health of patients with cor pulmonale depends not only on medical treatment but also on the understanding, self-treatment, self-care, and nursing provided by patients and their families.
