• Cardiac arrest is one of the most common and
  serious heart problems that can happen to anyone.
  Most of the cardiac arrests happen without any
  warning! If cardiac arrest happens to someone,
  that person will collapse immediately. After the
  cardiac arrest, the person will be unconscious,
  unresponsive, and wont breathe normally. In
  fact, without proper medical attention or
  treatment, the person can die too!! However,
  surgery
• can save a person from such a problem.

  TAVR during the cardiovascular procedure. This
