Care and Handling of the Flexible Endoscope
Flexible endoscopes have been in use since the late 1960's, permitting
minimally invasive visualization of the interior of many
body and lumens of tubular organs. The number of procedures
performed endoscopically continues to increase each year.
This independent study activity is intended to explore best
practices in the everyday care and handling of flexible endoscopes.
In this web-based independent study education activity, learners
will review the care and handling of the flexible endoscope.
They will learn how to prevent damage from everyday use,
thus extending the life of the scope and ensuring the safety
of the patient. Participants successfully completing the
independent study activity by reading the content, achieving
a score of 80% or higher on the post-test, and submitting
the required evaluation will be awarded 1 contact hour. Take

Preventing Fluid Damage to the Flexible Endoscope
Flexible endoscopes are expensive to purchase and expensive to
repair. In order to maintain optimal endoscopic performance,
all staff in an endoscopy lab should understand and implement
best practices for cleaning and disinfecting the instruments.
This independent study module is designed for flexible endoscopy
clinicians and technicians who have the responsibility for
care and handling of flexible endoscopes in their facility.
The content will focus on fluid invasion prevention, the
effects of fluid invasion on endoscopes, and symptoms of
fluid invasion. Participants successfully completing the
independent study activity by reading the content, achieving
a score of 80% or higher on the post-test, and submitting
the required evaluation, will be awarded 1 contact hour.
