Endoscope cleaning
Cleaning is the critical step in endoscope reprocessing. It consists of the mechanical cleaning of internal and external surfaces of the endoscope. This includes brushing them carefully with a detergent solution, and then flushing thoroughly with soft water. The purpose of cleaning is to remove all organic and inorganic materials from the internal and external surfaces of flexible endoscopes. If the manual cleaning, brushing and rinsing steps are not properly carried out, protein debris can harden and lead to formation of biofilm on the biopsy channel of the endoscope. Inadequate cleaning can thus result in material remaining on the endoscope surfaces which prevents disinfectant reaching all parts of potentially contaminated surfaces. For this reason, the endoscope should be cleaned with an enzymatic detergent immediately after use and prior to the disinfection step.
Tuttnauer T-CLEAN E 6 PLUS contains a combination of specific enzymes. The enzymes break down the soil into tiny fragments, making it water soluble and thus easier to remove by rinsing.
Use Tuttnauer T-CLEAN E 6 PLUS for endoscope cleaning:
- by manual cleaning
- in automated reprocessor
