Researchers from Lund University have developed a new emergency defibrillator, which could become an essential part of first aid kits. This new device is a nano-gel that can be injected into the body through a thin needle, thinner than a human hair, as it works to temporarily regulate the electrical signals of the heart.
This nanogel is able to form an electrically conductive polymer when in contact with tissue, allowing the heart to be regulated for up to five days. The gel is injected into the chest of a patient with an arrhythmia, and acts as an electrode that can be controlled via an external device, such as a mobile phone, to stimulate the heart with low-energy electricity.
The prominent advantage of this innovation is its ability to provide sufficient time for the patient to reach the hospital to receive permanent treatment, as the gel is naturally absorbed into the body after the end of the treatment period, without the need for surgical intervention. This new innovation offers a practical and rapid solution for treating cardiac emergencies, potentially reducing fatal complications associated with arrhythmia.
