cor pulmonale



chronic cor p. is characterized by hypertrophy of the right ventricle resulting from disease of the lungs, except for lung changes in diseases that primarily affect the left side of the heart and pulmonary artery and excluding congenital heart disease; acute cor p. is characterized by dilation and failure of the right side of the heart due to pulmonary embolism. In both types, characteristic electrocardiogram changes occur, and in later stages there is usually right-sided cardiac failure.

Look up cor pulmonale, if you have more information to verify this is the term you're hearing. I think it may be.

I've got a real mumbler here.  He is talking about cor pulmonale, but sounds at first as if he is saying "diagnosis of cor pulmonale," but that is not it because he says the word again under the diagnoses.  It starts with a "D" and ends with "nous"


I can't figure it out.


Thank you!
