Overall, these are only a few studies being done on cardiac tissue engineering. In order to discover new treatments we need to study stem cells and more research needs to be done. Engineers are needed to discover new cures for heart disease. They need to find safe ways to graft tissues onto people’s hearts. We are not sure what the tissues will do in a patient’s body and scientist are still trying to find ways to have better cell retention because, at the moment, the tissues do not fully adhere to scar tissue. Before engineers test their patches in humans, they need to make sure they know the long-lasting effects of their patches. The more engineers study tissue formations and how stem cells react in different environments the better patches they will be able to make. Biomedical engineers will provide the new treatments for heart disease and, hopefully, they will be able to lower the amount of deaths that are caused by it.
