Inspira™ Receives First Ever U.S. Patent Approval for an Orbiting Blood Oxygenation Delivery System
94% of the Claims Were Found to be Novel
RA'ANANA, Israel, Feb. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (Nasdaq: IINN) (Nasdaq: IINNW) (the "Company" or "Inspira Technologies"), is a breakthrough medical technology company targeting to supersede mechanical ventilators, has received the first ever U.S. Patent approval for an orbiting blood oxygenation delivery system, a core technology of the revolutionary INSPIRA™ ART500 device. This innovation has 16 claims found to be novel.

The orbiting blood oxygenation delivery system (VORTX™) is designed to oxygenate blood without fiber membranes, and we believe it is expected to revolutionize the medical landscape. The current fiber technologies used for blood oxygenation cause substantial damage to the patient's blood cells. Unlike the natural laminar blood flow in blood vessels inside the body, in existing fiber oxygenators, the blood is "forced" to flow in a harmful turbulent flow through many layers of fibers while experiencing friction and shear forces within the fiber walls. Since the fiber fabric is a significant resistor to blood flow, high-pressure differences are formed and cause significant damage to the various blood components, including, high hemolysis (breakdown of red cells), damage to white blood cells, activation of the inflammatory system in the body, activation of the immune system, and blood clotting.
We believe that the orbiting blood oxygenation delivery system is another potentially game-changing core technology of the INSPIRA ART500 device, in targeting the $19 billion mechanical ventilation market.
The INSPIRA ART500 is a breakthrough device, designed to empower breathing in patients that are awake, by continuously measuring the patient's blood parameters in real-time, and delivering needed oxygen volume straight into the blood. As the INSPIRA ART500 is to be equipped with the HYLA blood sensor, it is being designed to continuously scan the patient's blood, potentially allowing for real-time detection of changes in patient condition and providing physicians with decision-supportive data.
CEO of Inspira Technologies Dagi Ben-Noon: "We believe that this is a monumental advancement in the landscape of blood oxygenation technologies and a pivotal milestone and another key indicator of the INSPIRA ART500's core technological portfolio."
