Choledochoscopes have small lumens, channels, and other hidden spaces that should be visually inspected during reprocessing. The Endoinspect is the best way to visually inspect these small spaces for biofilm, debris, and damage.
The bacteria this latest study found weren’t superbugs, but researchers said there were potential pathogens that would put patients at high risk of infection.
“…an average of 15 percent of flexible endoscopes used to examine GI tracts and colons at five hospitals were harboring “bio-dirt”âcells and other material from previously examined patients. This was even after the instruments had been cleaned.”
The discovery of dirty endoscopes has previously led hospitals to issue alarming warnings to thousands of endoscopy patients that they should be tested for diseases such as HIV and hepatitis B and C
âTools such as video borescopes of an appropriate dimension (length and diameter) may be used to
visually inspect the internal channels of some medical devices.â
Lumens pose
a cleaning challenge because of their narrow structure that prevents visualization during the cleaning;
therefore, it is important to always check lumens for cleanliness after cleaning. Visual inspection of
lumens can be accomplished using a borescope
