Cross-contamination in Gastrointestinal Endoscopy: Why is Less Attention Paid in Europe than the US?

Multiple published studies provide evidence that gastrointestinal endoscopes can be contaminated even after proper reprocessing and that highly contaminated endoscopes increase the risk of patient-to-patient infections. We present data from the literature illustrating that the problem is also present in Europe, thus increased focus and transition to innovative technologies and designs is recommended.

Is contamination of duodenoscopes really a problem? What we know...

More healthcare-associated infections are related to contaminated endoscopes than to any other medical device.
