Cor pulmonale is right ventricular enlargement secondary to a lung disorder that causes pulmonary artery hypertension. Right ventricular failure follows. Findings include peripheral edema, neck vein distention, hepatomegaly, and a parasternal lift. Diagnosis is clinical and by echocardiography. Treatment is directed at the cause.
Cor pulmonale is diagnosed using both a physical exam and medical testing. Your doctor will look for any abnormal heart rhythms, fluid retention, and protruding neck veins during a physical exam.
Nursing diagnosis for Cor Pulmonale. Impaired Gas Exchange related to excess fluid in lungs; increased pulmonary vascular resistance. Excess Fluid Volume related to right-sided heart failure. Pulmonary artery catheter; indications and use. Nursing Interventions for Cor Pulmonale. Improving Gas Exchange

The current ICD used in the United States, the ICD-9, is based on a version that was first discussed in 1975. The United States adapted the ICD-9 as the ICD-9-Clinical Modification or ICD-9-CM. The ICD-9-CM contains more than 15,000 codes for diseases and disorders. The ICD-9-CM is used by government agencies.
ICD9Data.com takes the current ICD-9-CM and HCPCS medical billing codes and adds 5.3+ million links between them. Combine that with a Google-powered search engine, drill-down navigation system and instant coding notes and it's easier than ever to quickly find the medical coding information you need.
ICD-9-CM is the official system of assigning codes to diagnoses and procedures associated with hospital utilization in the United States. The ICD-9 was used to code and classify mortality data from death certificates until 1999, when use of ICD-10 for mortality coding started.
Having pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) means that you have high blood pressure in the arteries that go from your heart to your lungs . It's different from having regular high blood pressure. With PAH, the tiny arteries in your lungs become narrow or blocked.

Pulmonary heart disease, also known as cor pulmonale is the enlargement and failure of the right ventricle of the heart as a response to increased vascular resistance (such as from pulmonic stenosis) or high blood pressure in the lungs

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code I27.81 and a single ICD9 code, 416.9 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
