We successfully obtained 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") for our INSPIRA™ ART100 system and began its preparation for deployment in leading hospitals in the United States. In 2025, our focus is on the rapid advancement of our flagship INSPIRA™ ART core technologies, with the HYLA™ blood monitoring sensor expected to lead the way towards our planned FDA submission for clearance in the second half of the year. We've already deployed the FDA-cleared INSPIRA ART100 system to Westchester Memorial Center, NY, for its evaluation by their team of medical experts using the device in clinical procedures pursuant to the collaboration with the hospital." Recent Business and Operational Highlights FDA-Cleared System Deployment: In January 2025, Inspira delivered its FDA-cleared INSPIRA ART100 systems to Glo-Med Networks Inc. for distribution to hospitals across the east coast of the U.S., including, as reported, a cardiothoracic surgery division at a leading New York hospital ranked among the top 15 percent of cardiothoracic programs in the U.S. The deployment includes collaborative support from both parties to ensure seamless integration of this unique technology into clinical use. VORTX™ Technology Advancement: In January 2025, the Company unveiled a modular configuration for its VORTX blood oxygenation technology, representing a significant advancement in extracorporeal oxygenation with the potential to transform critical care practices by reducing harmful effects on blood components. HYLA™ Blood Sensor Clinical Results: In March 2025, Inspira announced positive results from the clinical study of its AI-powered HYLA™ blood sensor, which achieved 96% accuracy for a key parameter compared to traditional blood test analyzers. Additionally, a new indicator for identifying oxygen deficiencies demonstrated 92.3% accuracy. The clinical study, conducted at Sheba Medical Center, involved six patients undergoing open-heart surgery with the clip-on HYLA blood sensor monitoring blood parameters in real-time. The Company plans to advance with the ongoing clinical study and expects FDA submission for the first HYLA configuration in the second half of 2025. Manufacturing Partnership: In January 2025, the Company established a dedicated production line for a crucial flow mechanism component to be integrated into Inspira's products for use in the extracorporeal circulation of blood during the oxygenation process. The collaboration with Zriha Medical Ltd., a leading international manufacturer specializing in medical device production, enables to support scaling of production for its innovative respiratory support system and candidate technologies. INSPIRA ART100 System Enhancements: In January 2025, Inspira introduced new support features for the INSPIRA ART100 system designed to assist medical teams, reduce staff overhead, and improve efficiency through customizable protocols and advanced alarm troubleshooting capabilities. Infection Prevention Technology: In February 2025, Inspira reported positive initial results from its collaboration with Ennocure MedTech Ltd., with ex-vivo testing showing a 95% reduction in bacterial presence within 4 hours using a novel bio-electronic patch technology designed to prevent bloodstream infections. Leadership Strengthening: In January 2025, the Company appointed Mr. Tal Parnes as the new Chairman of the Board, bringing over three decades of experience in the medical technology and pharmaceutical sectors to enhance the Company's strategic vision and market positioning. In January 2025, the Company accepted Prof. Goldwasser's resignation from his position, which was due to personal reasons.
