Application of Hydrogel in Artificial Organs

Abstract

Hydrogels with excellent biological properties are highly suited for usage as bionic materials for artificial organs, which is crucial to the development of artificial organs. As a novel bionic material, hydrogel offers a wide range of medical applications. Recent advances in hydrogel research have led to a further refinement of the technology by fitting various hydrogels to various artificial organs in order to reach an optimal fit. Due to the vast array of medical uses, many evaluations choose to examine the development of hydrogels in the context of the biomedical field as a whole. However, the research in the refined medical area is equally worthy of consideration and summation. This paper provides a brief introduction to the necessary properties and preparation methods of hydrogel medical materials, highlights the application of hydrogel medical bionic materials in various artificial organs, and presents some challenges of the current hydrogel, offering new ideas and methods for the development of artificial organs in the future.
