Abstract
The improved endoscopy mask is a single-use, lightweight, disposable, easy-to-use endoscopy mask that is secured around the patient's head and neck. It contains the spread of any respiratory pathogens during upper G.I. endoscopy and extubation, thereby allowing the gastroenterologist to insert and withdraw the gastroscope (upper G.I. endoscope) through an opening in the mask. The mask can be utilized for airway intervention to contain pathogens in the intensive care unit (ICU), emergency department (ED), operating room (OR), and the G.I. endoscopy suite. It can also potentially be utilized away from the hospital in ambulances, hospice care, and nursing homes. The endoscopy mask confines potentially dangerous airway secretions to a sealed area around the patient's nose and mouth.
