An electromagnetic field is applied to transplanted cells during their
transplantation culturing to achieve confluence and alignment of
transplanted cells into damaged tissue and organs, therefore improving
the synchronization of electrical and mechanical tissue or organ
functions. The electromagnetic field may be applied by catheter based
devices to a selected portion of tissue or to the entire surface of a
hollow body cavity or organ, such as a heart chamber. The electromagnetic
field is provided by an expansible net or array from a catheter or on an
inflatable balloon or stent. The electromagnetic field is also provided
by an implantable net or array of electrodes which may either be
hardwired to a pulse generator or coupled by means of wireless or
inductive transmission.
