"Scar tissue may form in the damaged area, and that scar tissue does not contract or pump as well as healthy muscle tissue. As a consequence, the extent of damage to the heart muscle can impact how well the heart pumps blood throughout the body." Lab-grown patch of heart muscle and other cells could fix ailing hearts https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2019/... "Over the past 20 years, the bioengineer from Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, has been developing a 'patch' that could take the place of the cells destroyed by a heart attack. In rodents, he has found it can hook up to the circulatory system and contract." Heart patch could limit muscle damage in heart attack aftermath https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases... "Prior research had shown that mechanical patches could be effective, the researchers say, but no one had done any research on what the optimum mechanical properties of such a patch might be. As a result, the thickness and stiffness of potential patches varies widely. And getting those properties right is important." ____________________ Elements is more than just a science show.
