Dear All,
In relation to planning the development of a new endoscope unit, the
idea of installing an endoscope storage cabinet with a pass-through
style has been proposed.
This means the cabinet is opened to put in a clean scope with the other
clean scopes in the cabinet, it is locked and can be opened into the
procedure room and one of the clean endoscopes is removed for use.Does anyone have supporting literature to ensure there is no
contamination risk for the endoscopes in the cabinet? As endoscopy
procedures require good process indicators governance for Infection
Prevention I am looking for some evidence to support this new system.Kind regards

Hi Mary-Rose
I would contact GENCA and see if they have any information regarding these types of cabinets.
