Cardiac patch: A way to heal broken heart tissue(s)

I hope this gets our hospitals soon…

I’m not a medic guy so I’ll explain it how I understood it…

When someone gets a heart attack, some heart tissues dies because some fat is blocking the blood from flowing inside a blood vessel on the heart which if someone survived, it’ll leave behind a weakened heart…

Poking around with lab rat hearts, some researchers figured out something that they call “Cardiac Patch”… Which is literally a patch of young heart tissue that gets raised outside the heart then put on the heart (In some way or another) and after a while, that patch becomes a part of the heart…

Boy, I just summarized 8 paragraphs in a crappy way… So, check the related CNET page if you want more details (And probably more accurate explanation than what I’ve wrote up there).
