[ Ссылка ] - Patients preparing for cardiac surgery are often confused about the process and safety of stopping the heart for operations including heart valve repair, heart valve replacement, coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and aortic aneurysm repair. Common patient questions are "How will my doctors stop my heart?" and "Is it safe to stop my heart during cardiac surgery?"

To answer these important questions, we interviewed Dr. Joanna Chikwe, the Chair of Cardiac Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California. During her extraordinary career, Dr. Chikwe has performed thousands of cardiac operations.

To schedule an appointment or second opinion with Dr. Chikwe, please call (866) 345-1289 or visit [ Ссылка ].
