SenCere Medical is working to prevent the occurrence of pressure ulcers by providing innovative medical devices. SenCere's product development is based on its own clinical research in which the physiological mechanisms of pressure ulcer formation are studied, and the results are used to develop a relief alarm, currently under development. SenCere has completed development of their product, SitSafe. First field test are performed during 2011. SenCere's relief alarm aims to help patients and caregivers prevent the occurrence of pressure ulcers. The company SenCere was founded in 2008 after having been started as a business development project at the Göteborg International Bioscience Business School in 2007. The business was based on an idea and a dissertation made at the then Department of Biomedicine and Surgery at Hälsouniversitetet (the University of Health), and the collaboration between Göteborg and Linköping that emerged. SenCere has evolved from a research project to a company within the Sahlgrenska Science Park incubator. SenCere enters an exciting phase where the company is commencing pilot tests of their prototype with potential customers. The first commercial sale is expected to occur within one year to existing contacts in the health care system.
