1.5.1 Reprocessing Before the First Use/Reprocessing After Use
This product has not been reprocessed. The endoscope and its accessories must be
reprocessed prior to first use as per instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual.
After using the endoscope and its accessories, reprocess and store them according to the
instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual.
Note Delayed reprocessing of endoscopes, particularly duodenoscopes, is not
recommended.
WARNING
• The entire surface and each channel of the endoscope and the accessories must be
reprocessed prior to first use, after any servicing, after any subsequent use, and after
storage as per instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual, even if the accessories
were not used during a procedure. In addition, store this product as per instructions
provided in the Reprocessing Manual. Inadequate reprocessing or storage may cause
infection.
• When using this product for a patient with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (especially variant
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease), use it exclusively for a patient with the same disease, or
properly discard this product after use. Since the cleaning, disinfection and sterilization
methods described in the Reprocessing Manual of this product cannot eliminate the causal
agents of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, the product could be a source of infection. For the
treatment of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, refer to local guidelines.
• Immediately upon completion of the procedure, it is imperative that pre-cleaning
is performed as per instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual. Otherwise,
residual organic debris may begin to dry and solidify and hinder effective removal and
reprocessing, causing infection.
CAUTION
• The entire surface and each channel of the endoscope and the accessories must be
reprocessed prior to first use, after any servicing, after any subsequent use, and after
storage as per instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual. In addition, store this
product as per instructions provided in the Reprocessing Manual. Inadequate reprocessing
or storage may cause equipment damage, or reduce performance.
• Do not forcibly twist or bend the insertion tube of the endoscope. It could damage the
endoscope.
