A miracle gel to beat heart attack

New Delhi, Tue, 12 Aug 2008 NI Wire

It’s an amazing news for the heart patients as a team of Israeli scientists have developed a miracle gel which could save thousands of life suffering from major heart attacks.

A gel derived from ordinary brown seaweed can be used for saving the heart patients from further heart attacks as researchers claim.

The team of Israeli scientists led by Professor Smedar Cohen has claimed to discover such an incredible gel which substances can be used for strengthening the scar tissues of heart when it is injected in the heart through groin vein in liquid form.

The liquid transforms into thick gel when it meets with the scar tissues of heart and also leads the tissues to be thick, which in general are found to be in thin form in heart patients.

The thick heart tissues heal gradually and function as normal tissues, which shrinks the chances of further heart attack and enhance the life-term of patients.

Usually, in heart patients, the tissues of the heart become week and left ventricle also becomes dangerously enlarged after first heart attack. As a result it has to work harder for pumping blood around the body thereby multiplying the chances of further heart attacks.

At present, there is no treatment of healing the scar tissues of heart.

According to British Doctors, after entering in the market commercially that is expected to arrive by 2011, this miracle gel can save as much as 20,000 lives every year.

The researchers have tested it on the animals and found amazing result. According to them, 90 per cent of animals injected with the gel survived a heart attack compared to just 40 per cent who received no treatment at all.

The trial on human has been initiated in Germany, Belgium and Israel, as per sources.
