Post-surgical cardiac adhesions represent a significant problem during routine cardiothoracic procedures. This fibrous tissue can impair heart function and inhibit surgical access in reoperation procedures. Here, we propose a hydrogel barrier composed of oxime crosslinked poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)...
