On Tuesday, Inspira Technologies OXY B.H.N. IINN announced positive initial results from its previously reported collaboration with Ennocure MedTech to develop a novel bio-electronic treatment for preventing bloodstream infections.

In ex-vivo porcine skin model testing, the bio-electronic patch demonstrated a 95% reduction in bacterial presence within 4 hours, with continued effectiveness observed over 24 hours.

The technology, which uses physical electric stimulation rather than chemical agents, showed promising results in preventing pathogen growth on treated surfaces.

Inspira Technologies chief Dagi Ben-Noon noted an estimated 250,000 bloodstream infections related to intravenous lines occurring worldwide yearly. The approach could offer significant advantages in critical care settings.

Bio-electronic technology can address several key challenges associated with traditional IV dressings, including prevention of bacterial growth through physical rather than chemical means, potential for extended wear time, reduced frequency of dressing changes, applicability to both skin surface and cannula areas, and real-time monitoring capabilities.

Price Action: IINN stock is down 3.35% at $0.8206 premarket at last check on Tuesday.
