SINNAIS

represents a completely new approach to the delivery of therapeutics for a variety of difficult-to-treat disease models. It is the world’s first implantable pump capable of delivering metronomically controlled micro-doses of a drug and incorporating Josh Shachar’s proprietary biosensor technology to provide a physician with real-time biometric feedback on the effectiveness of the treatment.  Initially designed for treating brain-based CNS where existing delivery has low impact and high risk, the technology has many additional broad-based applications.

DESCRIPTION

  • Implantable SMART Pump for Metronomic Delivery of Therapeutics
  • Provides complete autonomy to patients undergoing treatment dramatically improving quality of life. 
  • Ability to deliver therapeutics micro-dose levels as low as 1ml/hr.
  • MRI safe and certified to 10,000ft to allow air travel
  • Optical Sensor provides real-time biometric feedback of data such as temperature, fluid analysis, and therapeutic concentration levels allowing physicians to adjust drug delivery to maintain maximum effective dose and maximum tolerable dose thresholds. 
  • Wireless control allows system diagnostics, therapy analysis, and drug delivery to be controlled remotely by the physician from anywhere in the world.
