The excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hypoxia deteriorate the inflammation‐related diseases such as myocardial infarction (MI), and thereby deter the normal tissue repair and recovery and further lead to severe fibrosis and malfunction of tissues and organs. In particular, the MI has become one of the leading causes of death nowadays. In this study, a novel type of injectable hydrogel with dual functions of ROS scavenging and O₂ generating is fabricated for MI treatment in vivo. The hydrogel is formed within 3 s from the synthetic ROS‐cleavable hyperbranched polymers and methacrylate hyaluronic acid (HA‐MA) under UV‐irradiation. Addition of biocompatible and applicable catalase in vivo enables the further transition of H₂O₂, a major type of ROS, to O₂ and H₂O. Results of rat MI model demonstrate that this hydrogel can significantly remove excessive ROS, inhibit cell apoptosis, increase M2/M1 …
