The LOI solidifies the mutual commitment of both parties to assess the integration and performance of the INSPIRA™ ART100 device ("Device) within Shamir Medical Center's clinical environment.

The evaluation will be led by Dr. Eduard Ilgiyaev, Director of the Intensive Care Unit at Shamir Medical Center and a leading pioneer of critical care medicine in Israel. The progression of this LOI hinges on the AMAR (medical devices and accessories) approval by the Israeli Ministry of Health for the Device, and the subsequent formalization of a detailed definitive evaluation agreement between the parties.
