Outline of Final Research Achievements

We developed the surgical method using the temperature-responsive polymer to repair post MI ventricular septal perforation more surely. We sew a patch to repair VSP, but it is likely that suture-lines will be ruptured because infarction cardiac muscle is very fragile tissue.
In this study, we restored the tissue intensity by injecting a temperature-responsive polymer into infarction cardiac muscle, and improved the durability of damaged tissue against the stress of surgical suturing.In the in-vitro study, it became clear that tissue intensity of 3 times was obtained by injecting poly (N-isopropyl acrylic amide) (PNIPAM) polymer. In the rat MI model, thinning and tear injury of the cardiac tissue over time at the patch-suture sites were inhibited when we injected the polymer and sewed a ePTFE patch to rat infarction cardiac muscle.
