Sinapi Biomedical Revenue and Competitors

Sinapi biomedical was founded with the purpose to provide medical devices with clinical benefit. The devices developed and manufactured by Sinapi have as first priority a clinical or practical improvement compared to competitive products. This provides the motivation and a belief that, as a team, we are making a long term contribution towards advancing healthcare.\r\n\r\nSinapi is situated in the heart of South African wine country, Stellenbosch. \r\n\r\nFields of Expertise\r\n\r\nChest Drainage: Existing chest drainage devices are heavy and bulky and have to be kept upright. Sinapi was tasked by Cardio-Thoracic and Trauma surgeons to develop a more compact chest drainage device that enables greater patient mobility while still suiting all applications of draining chest fluids i.e. after heart surgery, lung surgery, trauma surgery, etc.\r\n\r\nCup Feeding: The World Health Organization stipulates that baby bottles are not allowed in hospitals as these do not promote breast feeding, are technically difficult to clean and can therefore cause diarrhoea. Cup feeding is suggested to support exclusive breast feeding (expressed breast milk) or exclusive replacement feeding (as safer alternative to bottle feeding). Together with the Department of Neonatology (Groote Schuur Academic Hospital) and specifically Prof David Woods, Sinapi developed a cup in which to safely store, mix and give feeds.
