Volumetric 3D Printing and Melt‐Electrowriting to Fabricate Implantable Reinforced Cardiac Tissue Patches

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents an implantable reinforced cardiac patch (RCPatch) combining volumetrically 3D‐printed metamaterials with melt‐electrowritten (MEW) meshes. The design integrates tunable stiff polymer structures with soft, cell‐laden hydrogels. The RCPatch withstands suturing, intraventricular pressure, and cardiac contraction in a large animal ...
