Cleaning, disinfection and sterilization 

procedures

After each procedure, clean, disinfect and sterilize the endoscope according to 
the procedure described below.

Endoscope reprocessing summary chart

ALL channels of the endoscope, including the elevator wire 
channel where existing, MUST be cleaned and high-level 
disinfected or sterilized during EVERY reprocessing cycle, 
even if the channels were not used during the previous 
patient procedure. Otherwise, insufficient cleaning and 
disinfection or sterilization of the endoscope may pose an 
infection control risk to the patient and/or operators 
performing the next procedure with the endoscope.
