Towards prevention of re-entrant arrhythmias: Injectable hydrogel electrodes enable direct capture of previously inaccessible cardiac tissues

G. Rodriguez-Rivera, A. Post, M. John, S. Buchan, M. Wancura, M. Chwatko, C. Waldron, A. Nkansah, D. Bernard, N. Kalkunte, J. Zoldan, M. Arseneault, M. Razavi, E. Cosgriff-Hernandez

This paper develops injectable hydrogel electrodes that can pace previously inaccessible mid-myocardial tissue, mimicking physiologic conduction and offering a potential alternative to current arrhythmia treatments.
