Listen "Reprocessing reusable endoscopes"
Episode Synopsis
What are the greatest challenges facing endoscopy decontamination departments? Is there a potential risk of cross-contamination associated with reusable endoscopes? And, can single-use endoscopy mitigate these issues? In this episode, we look at the changing workload of decontamination departments. We assess the hidden costs associated with reprocessing and the impact reprocessing can have on patient throughput. We also discuss the operator safety, emissions and plastic waste attributed to decontaminating reusable endoscopes.
