Coceka Mnyani is a South African clinician-researcher in obstetrics and gynaecology, closely associated with academic hospitals in Johannesburg, including Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital. Her work is rooted in high HIV-prevalence settings, focusing on maternal health, prevention of mother-to-child transmission, and the strengthening of obstetric services within the public health system.
Her research examines trends in maternal mortality, particularly among women living with HIV, highlighting the impact of evolving antiretroviral guidelines on outcomes. She has contributed to large programme evaluations of PMTCT implementation in Soweto and to analyses of infant HIV testing amid policy changes and the COVID-19 pandemic, demonstrating sustained commitment to improving maternal and child health services.
Additional contributions address obstetric high-care management, hypertensive disorders, haemorrhage, prenatal screening, and complex pregnancy conditions. Across her publications, a consistent strength lies in translating routine clinical data into evidence that informs policy and practice, supporting safer pregnancies and advancing integrated HIV and reproductive health care in South Africa.
