Minimally invasive delivery of therapeutic agents by hydrogel injection into the pericardial cavity for cardiac repair

Current routes to deliver therapeutics to the heart are normally invasive or difficult to perform. Here the authors develop intrapericardial injection as an efficient, easy-to-perform and minimally invasive method to deliver therapeutics for cardiac repair.
