Methods, systems, and devices are described for treating ischemia in heart tissue after a heart attack. A method includes providing a heat treatment device comprising a heating element, positioning the heating element in proximity to the heart tissue, and heating the heart tissue with the heating element to generate release of heat shock proteins in the heart tissue. The heat shock proteins may also be provided via delivery of a drug. The heat shock proteins can provide myocardial protection for the heart tissue. |
