Our Story
Inventors, Creators & Collaborators
In 2007, Liron Elia hears a story about a critically ill patient who receives successful medical treatment but later loses his life to pneumonia, an ICU-acquired complication.
This needless death does not make sense to Liron. So he opens medical books and starts studying. His background in computing and mathematics paired with the newly gained medical knowledge enables him to design the initial solution and to submit a patent. In 2008, Liron founds ART MEDICAL.
Fast forward a decade, ART MEDICAL has registered numerous patents, successfully validated its products, and received CE Mark and FDA clearance. And it stays true to the mission that Liron set in 2008 – to bring critical care into the 21st century and save lives through technological innovations.
