Brain+ A/S informs that CST Assistant v2.0 has been released in Denmark. The CST Assistant is a unique software-based solution for the preparation and delivery of Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) to people with dementia. CST is the leading evidence-based non-pharmacological therapy for dementia, recommended by the World Alzheimer's Association and the World Health Organization (WHO) for worldwide implementation.

The Danish version 1.0 of the CST Assistant was made available for CST therapists for user testing and feedback in Fourth Quarter 2022, which has led to 6 sales contracts with 4 municipalities. The release of version 2.0 introduces several new features and functional improvements aimed at making the preparation of CST sessions easier and faster, enhancing flexibility and fidelity in conducting the therapy, and offering an overall more personalized experience for CST therapists and people with dementia receiving CST. The CST-Assistant v2.0 will be introduced in the UK as a medical device with medical claims, facilitating better access to reimbursement pathways for medical software solutions.

In Denmark, the product has been introduced as a regular health product due to lack of reimbursement options, bypassing the costs of EU medical device certification.
