Amongst other medical devices generated by SIMTech are the automatic safety needleand the self-heating blood bag. The automatic safety needle with the automaticallyactivated safety needle sheath simplifies the use of syringes safety for cathethers,glucose and saline administration in patients, reducing the risk of contamination andinfection to care givers and healthcare workers. The portable self-heating blood bag isable to warm up the fluids within the bag into normal temperatures without usingconventional warm water bath methods. This portable heating bag can be customisedfor other medical device applications, opening up new medical product opportunities.6
