[{"type":"text","content":"All 20 claims were found to be novel, with inventive step and industrial applicability\nRA'ANANA, Israel, Jan. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspira™ Technologies OXY B.H.N. Ltd. (NASDAQ: IINN) (NASDAQ: IINNW) (the \"Company\" or \"Inspira Technologies\"), a groundbreaking respiratory support technology company, announced today that the novel convertible dual lumen cannula device and method of use, being developed for the INSPIRA™ ART System, has been granted a patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The patent approval includes 20 claims that were found to be novel, with inventive step and industrial applicability.\n \nBased on the U.S. patent grant, the Company plans to file for similar patents in additional countries.\nThe Company expects to integrate the convertible dual lumen cannula with additional Inspira products in the future.

The dual lumen cannula is a single tube with two separate inner channels or \"lumens\" and requires only a single incision point.\n \nInspira Technologies' Convertible Dual Lumen Cannula \nInspira Technologies' convertible dual lumen cannula device uniquely intravascularly converts a single-lumen cannula into a dual lumen cannula after initial insertion, thus allowing for the same incision point to potentially have multiple uses. The convertible dual lumen cannula is designed to allow for switching from a single lumen to a dual lumen cannula, and vice versa, without the need for new incisions required when changing or adding additional cannulas. The Inspira Technologies convertible dual lumen is designed to potentially allow for fast action and reduced risk, complications and additional infection points.\nCEO of Inspira Technologies, Dagi Ben-Noon: \"The novel, and now patented, convertible dual lumen cannula device represents another step forward in the delivery of new technologies designed to be simple and scalable. In today's market, dual lumens a...
