Inspira's innovative FDA-cleared INSPIRA™ ART100 system was successfully deployed at premier U.S. hospital, with systems in place for clinical use
RA'ANANA, Israel, March 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN) ("Inspira" or the "Company"), a pioneer in innovative life-support and diagnostic technologies, today announced that it has successfully completed the installation, training program and operational readiness for its INSPIRA ART100 system for cardiopulmonary bypass procedures at one of New York's premier hospitals.
We believe that this installation represents a significant milestone in the Company's deployment plan, as the Company nears the first human clinical use of the system. The newly installed INSPIRA ART100 systems are expected to be used for clinical use in the near future by the hospital's team of experts on patients undergoing procedures. The Company expects to receive feedback in the coming weeks from such use.
"We believe that this successful installation and training program represents a transformative moment for Inspira," said Dagi Ben-Noon, Chief Executive Officer of Inspira. "The adoption of our technology by one of the nation's premier hospitals is expected to provide validation for the clinical value of our innovative approach to extracorporeal life support and to establish our commercial presence in the U.S. healthcare market. The enthusiastic initial response from the hospital's world-class team reinforces the transformative potential of our technology in revolutionizing respiratory care standards."
The Company's proprietary hardware and software platform is already embedded in the INSPIRA ART100, with this installation expected to serve as the precursor to the clinical use of one of the core technologies of the flagship INSPIRA™ ART500 system. Inspira aims to revolutionize the $19 billion mechanical ventilation market with its INSPIRA ART500 novel technology, with the goal of replacing a significant portion of the estimated 100,000 ventilators in the U.S. with a safer, more human-centered alternative.
The deployment is part of the Company's broader expansion strategy, which includes collaborating with leading medical opinion leaders and successfully supplying leading institutions with its next-generation technology for clinical use. This achievement follows the receipt of FDA 510(k) clearance for the INSPIRA ART100 system.
