Assessing residual contamination and damage inside flexible endoscopes over time

Highlights • Gastroscopes had higher ATP levels than colonoscopes. • Borescope examinations of endoscope lumens revealed defects requiring repair. • Microbial growth was found on approximately half of patient-ready endoscopes. • Internal damage and residual fluid may foster contamination and biofilm...
