In article 2202122, Xifu Zheng, Yazhong Bu, and co-workers successfully develop a fast degradable shape memory sponge for noncompressible hemorrhage without hindering tissue regeneration. The resulting sponge possesses high mechanical stability and hemostatic efficiency. Meanwhile, its fast degradation, resulting from succinic esters, leads to fast tissue regeneration when compared with a commercialized sponge. This sponge is composed of components with well-identified biocompatibility, making it very promising in the clinic.
