The purchase order follows the successful completion of an extensive hospital-based clinical evaluation, during which ART100 systems were deployed in the treatment of more than 30 patients across a broad range of cardiopulmonary and surgical cases. The evaluation provided NYU Langone with direct operational experience integrating the ART100 platform into the hospital workflows and led directly to the hospital’s decision to transition from clinical assessment to commercial procurement.
“NYU Langone’s transition from hospital-based evaluation to commercial purchase reflects the operational value of the ART100 platform in real hospital use,” said Mike Hershkovitz, VP of Global Sales at Inspira Technologies. “This order provides an important hospital reference as we continue commercial discussions with additional U.S. and international hospital systems evaluating extracorporeal support technologies.”
“Our search for the future of extracorporeal support through innovation and cost-effective technology led us to Inspira,” said Fred Hill, Director of Extracorporeal Technology at NYU Langone Hospital. “The ART100 demonstrated the type of flexibility, usability, and economic potential we believe will be important for the future of extracorporeal support.”
NYU Langone is part of NYU Langone Health, a nationally recognized academic health system named to the 2025–2026 U.S. News & World Report “Best Hospitals” Honor Roll and ranked No. 1 in the United States in multiple specialties, including cardiology, heart and vascular surgery, pulmonology and lung surgery, neurology and neurosurgery, and geriatrics.
The ART100 is a U.S. FDA-cleared extracorporeal blood circulation system intended for use in cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. The system is currently active and under evaluation at additional U.S. hospitals. As previously disclosed, Inspira is advancing an active strategic process involving multiple counterparties regarding potential transactions involving the ART100 system and additional medical assets. The Company believes the purchase order from NYU Langone provides an important commercial reference point within this process.
