Inspira™ Technologies Unveils Modular Configuration for Revolutionary VORTX™ Blood Oxygenation Delivery Technology

Rhea-AI Summary

Inspira Technologies has unveiled a modular configuration for its VORTX blood oxygenation delivery technology, targeting the $19 billion mechanical ventilation market. The VORTX system, protected by 32 novel patent claims, is designed to maintain more natural blood flow compared to traditional fiber-based oxygenators.

The company's flagship INSPIRA ART system aims to stabilize declining oxygen saturation levels in awake patients without requiring a ventilator, potentially benefiting approximately 20 million ICU patients with respiratory failure annually. In mid-2024, the INSPIRA ART100 system received both FDA 510(k) clearance for CBP procedures and Israeli AMAR certification for Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Cardiopulmonary Bypass procedures.

The modular VORTX configuration is expected to extend the INSPIRA ART's capabilities in blood oxygen enrichment and carbon dioxide removal, enhancing its versatility across various medical scenarios.

The technology has the potential to provide life-saving support for the approximately 20 million ICU patients with respiratory failure annually

RA'ANANA, Israel, Jan. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspira Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (Nasdaq: IINN, IINNW) ("Inspira" or the "Company"), a leader in life-support technology innovation, is proud to announce the development of a modular configuration for its groundbreaking VORTX blood oxygenation delivery technology. We believe that this innovative approach represents a significant advancement in the field of extracorporeal oxygenation and has the potential to transform critical care practices worldwide.

The unique modular configuration of the VORTX blood oxygenation delivery system is expected to extend the INSPIRA ART's range of blood oxygen enrichment and carbon dioxide removal, potentially expanding the versatility of the INSPIRA ART. The flagship INSPIRA ART system targets to revolutionize the $19 Billion Mechanical ventilation market, and is being designed to elevate and stabilize declining oxygen saturation levels in patients while they are awake, and without a ventilator.

Inspira's VORTX system represents a potential paradigm shift in blood oxygenation technology. Unlike traditional fiber-based oxygenators, the VORTX is designed to maintain a more natural blood flow, potentially reducing harmful effects on blood components. This novel approach has garnered significant attention, with the technology now protected by 32 novel patent claims.

As Inspira continues to develop and refine the modular VORTX blood oxygenation delivery technology, the Company remains committed to advancing respiratory care and improving patient outcomes. The modular configuration is expected to enhance the versatility and applicability of the VORTX technology across various medical scenarios.

Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd.

Inspira Technologies is an innovative medical technology company in the life support and respiratory treatment arena. The Company has developed a breakthrough Augmented Respiration Technology (INSPIRA™ ART), a groundbreaking device poised to revolutionize the $19 billion mechanical ventilation market. With 20 million intensive care unit patients with acute respiratory failure each year, many of whom rely on mechanical ventilators, the INSPIRA ART offers a potential alternative by elevating and stabilizing decreasing oxygen saturation levels in minutes without a ventilator, with patients being awake during treatment. The INSPIRA ART is being equipped with a clip-on HYLA™ blood sensor, a real-time continuous blood monitoring technology, aiming to alert physicians of changes in a patient's condition without the need for intermittent actual blood samples, aiming to support physicians in making informed decisions.

In June and July 2024, respectively, the Company's INSPIRA^™ ART100 system has obtained FDA 510(k) clearance for use in CBP procedures, along with the Israeli AMAR certification for both Extra-Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Cardiopulmonary Bypass procedures.

The Company's other products and technologies, including the INSPIRA ART also known as the INSPIRA™ ART500 or Gen 2, the INSPIRA™ Cardi-ART portable modular device, VORTX™ Oxygen Delivery System, and HYLA™ blood sensor, are currently being designed and developed, and have not yet been tested or used in humans nor approved by any regulatory entity.
