A liner for an endoscope storage tray is provided. The liner has an interior comprising a flexibly deformable material substantially impermeable to fluids and an absorbent material disposed within or attached to at least a portion of the flexibly deformable material. The liner is configured to temporarily line at least an interior of the endoscope storage tray. Systems and methods are also provided.

Absorbent liner, systems and methods of use

A cart for storage of an endoscope is provided. The cart comprises a housing having a slot configured to slidably receive a tray. The tray is configured to store an endoscope, and a timer is coupled to the housing, slot and/or tray. The timer is configured to display increments of time that the endoscope is stored in the tray. Systems and methods are also provided.

Endoscope storage cart, system and methods

An endoscope tray is provided. The tray comprises an interior for storage of an endoscope. The interior has an upstanding element having a top surface, and a plurality of apertures disposed on at least a portion of the top surface of the upstanding element to facilitate drainage of fluids. Systems and methods are also provided.

Endoscope storage tray having apertures and method of use

Embodiments of a system and method for endoscope cleaning and inspection are disclosed. In an example, an endoscope cleaning and inspection unit includes cleaning and testing capabilities operated via control equipment and a display screen, to operate leak testing equipment, flush control equipment, and optical inspection equipment for leak testing, flushing, rinsing, and inspection of an endoscope interior chamber (lumen) and exterior surfaces. In a further example, the endoscope cleaning and inspection unit may further operate and receive information from a borescope imaging device or a magnification imaging device, using an imaging sensor to capture images of an endoscope lumen or surface respectively, as captured or output on the display screen. Further embodiments provide for control, monitoring, data collection, data input, and data output with such imaging devices via the endoscope cleaning and inspection.

Endoscope cleaning and inspection system and method

A cover for an endoscope storage tray is provided. The cover comprises a flexibly deformable material substantially impermeable to fluids. The flexibly deformable material is configured to be temporarily secured to the tray so as to cover an endoscope storage compartment of the tray. A one-way valve is attached to the cover that is configured to release air flowing from the endoscope storage compartment of the tray to the cover. Systems and methods are also provided.

Vented endoscope tray covers, systems and methods

An endoscope cleansing accessory is described for use at the bedside, manual cleaning sink, or prior to decontamination of the endoscope with an automatic endoscope reprocessing (AER) apparatus. The cleansing accessory includes a cleansing pod or bulbous package filled with a cleaning composition, such as a foam, fluid or powder, and a blocking mechanism located at or near an opening of the cleansing pod. The blocking mechanism is configured to block a suction channel once the cleansing pod is tightly fitted over a distal end of the endoscope. External pressure applied to the outside of the cleansing pod in the form of repeated compression or squeezing drives the cleaning fluid through an elevator platform or forceps raiser bridge mechanism within the endoscope's distal end to loosen tissue and other particles, which can then be flushed out during manual cleaning or by the flowing cleansing fluid of an AER.

Endoscope cleaning and flushing accessory

An endoscope tray is provided. The tray comprises an interior for storage of an endoscope. The tray has a lid configured to cover the tray. The lid has an exterior surface having a recess and/or projection, and the tray has a bottom exterior surface having a recess and/or projection such that the recess and/or projection of the lid is configured to mate with the recess and/or projection of the bottom exterior surface of the tray. Systems and methods are also provided.

Stackable endoscope storage tray and method of use

Embodiments of a system and method for endoscope cleaning and inspection are disclosed. In an example, an endoscope cleaning and inspection unit includes cleaning and testing capabilities operated via control equipment and a display screen, to operate leak testing equipment, flush control equipment, and optical inspection equipment for leak testing, flushing, rinsing, and inspection of an endoscope interior chamber (lumen) and exterior surfaces. In a further example, the endoscope cleaning and inspection unit may further operate and receive information from a borescope imaging device or a magnification imaging device, using an imaging sensor to capture images of an endoscope lumen or surface respectively, as captured or output on the display screen. Further embodiments provide for control, monitoring, data collection, data input, and data output with such imaging devices via the endoscope cleaning and inspection unit.

An apparatus for use in a method of decontaminating a device including a tray. A membrane permeable by a decontaminating fluid is positioned over the top of the tray to form an enclosed space. A lid is secured to the tray and the membrane is positioned between the tray and the lid. A hub assembly is positioned within the tray.

Packaging for use in a decontamination system

A medical accessory holder () is provided, for use during reprocessing and/or conditioning of medical equipment. The holder comprises a planar base portion (). At least one recess () is provided in the planar base portion, and is adapted to receive a medical accessory () firmly engaged therein. The holder () further comprises retaining means () associated with the base portion () and adapted to engage therewith. Once engaged, the retaining means () cannot be disengaged, and the medical accessory () cannot be removed from the recess (), without breaking the retaining means (), thereby rendering the holder suitable only for single use. Attachment means () are further provided to enable the holder () to be secured to an article of medical equipment with which the medical accessory () is associated, during reprocessing thereof.
