Angioplasty done and one stent implanted

Question

Asked for Male, 32 Years

I am planning to apply for immigration to Canada on PR, and they conduct a medical test to approve immigration. I would like to know that in year 2002 angioplasty was done and one stent was implanted. But I have never ever faced any problem related to heart or anything; neither before angioplasty nor post. Currently I am not taking any medication. So will it cause any problem in getting Canada PR.
