Study shows that cardiac spheroids, derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells, can be easily transported and injected into damaged areas of the heart to promote its regeneration and recovery of function. Heart attacks typically kill millions of cardiac muscle cells, leaving the heart in a weakened state.

Abstract Aim Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a cornerstone in the management of chronic heart failure in patients with a broad or paced QRS. The primary composite endpoint included all-cause mortality, heart transplantation, or ventricular assist device implantation. ml/min/1.73 m ml/min/1.73 m ml/min/1.73 m

Background:Many cardiovascular disorders propel the development of advanced heart failure that necessitates cardiac transplantation. When treatable causes are excluded, studies to define causes are often abandoned, resulting in a diagnosis of end-stage idiopathic cardiomyopathy.

David Gibson, 75, of Walbridge, Ohio, traveled 100 miles to undergo care with UH Harrington Heart & Vascular Institute. He was diagnosed with extensive coronary artery disease, resulting in ischemic cardiomyopathy and heart failure. His heart was weak and did not pump well due to blockages in his coronary arteries.
