An indwelling device for treating flora includes probiotics, a carrier carrying the probiotics and including a first region arranged in an appendico and a second region arranged in an intestinal cecum, in which the probiotics are carried in the first region and the second region contains an antibacterial agent.

Indwelling device for treating flora and method for treating flora

Based on image data obtained by imaging a state of the preliminary cleaning of an endoscope by manual work, a cleaning status determination unit determines whether or not the preliminary cleaning has been performed on the endoscope. A notification control unit generates notification data regarding the determination result in the cleaning status determination unit and outputs the notification data from the output apparatus. When the cleaning status determination unit identifies a step that has not been properly performed, the notification control unit generates notification data including information regarding the step that has not been properly performed. The notification control unit may generate notification data including image data obtained by imaging the state of the step.

Cleaning support system, processing apparatus, and cleaning support method

An endoscope reprocessor includes: a treatment tank; a transmission panel made of a transmitting material that allows an observation wave to transmit through the transmitting material, the transmission panel being disposed such that the observation wave is allowed to transmit from a reprocessor outer surface to an inside of the treatment tank; and at least one terminal holding member disposed on the reprocessor outer surface, and configured to hold an observation terminal at a position that allows the observation terminal to observe the inside of the treatment tank through the transmission panel, the observation terminal including a receiver that receives the observation wave.

Endoscope reprocessor

An endoscope reprocessor includes a bottle connecting instrument and a nozzle. The bottle connecting instrument includes a first advancing and retracting member which shuts off a first flow path at a first position and opens the first flow path at a second position; a first fitting member; and a first retaining member which retains the first advancing and retracting member. The nozzle includes a second advancing and retracting member which shuts off the nozzle at a third position and opens the nozzle at a forth position, a second fitting member to be fitted with the first fitting member, and a second retaining member which retains the second advancing and retracting member.

Endoscope reprocessor and bottle

An endoscope reprocessor includes a concentration sensor including a concave section in which a sensing section is housed and a permeable membrane configured to cover the concave section, a medicinal solution tank, to an inside of which at least the permeable membrane is exposed and on the inside of which a disinfection solution is stored, and a heating section configured to heat at least the permeable membrane.

Endoscope reprocesssor

An endoscope reprocessor includes a medicinal solution tank configured to store a medicinal solution; a first detachable portion provided in the medicinal solution tank and configured to detachably hold the concentration meter such that a measuring surface of the concentration meter is placed in the medicinal solution tank; a preserving fluid tank configured to store a preserving fluid of the concentration meter; and a second detachable portion provided in the preserving fluid tank and configured to detachably hold the concentration meter such that the measuring surface of the concentration meter is placed in the preserving fluid tank.
