Simavita Limited ("Simavita" or the "Company"), a global leader in the digital healthcare sector, is pleased to release a summary of clinical results observed during a trial evaluation of Simavita's SIM® system at showcase sites in Denmark. The trial was conducted in late 2014 in collaboration with the Copenhagen Municipality and the Company's local distributor, Abena A/S. It assessed both the benefits of using an evidence based, instrumented, 72 hour assessment and the resulting outcomes of continence care plans generated by SIM®.

The Danish Healthcare Sector

Denmark is recognized as a leader in the aged care sector. Care for the elderly is approached with a focus on wellness, and the practices implemented there are designed to ensure a high standard of care. Where best practices are identified, it is common for them to be deployed across many of the country's 51 municipalities.

Approximately 89,500 elderly people in Denmark live in a nursing home with different degrees of care ranging from complete care to assisted living. In Denmark, currently more than 1 million people are aged over 65. It is estimated that around 10% of the total Danish population of 5,655,750 people - with an overrepresentation in nursing homes - suffers from incontinence ranging from light to severe.

The Danish aged care industry is government controlled and is managed via multiple municipalities. Aged care facilities are owned and operated by the municipality government and buying is done centrally via each municipality.
