4.7.4 Inspecting Suction Function
WARNING
• If water leaks from the forceps valve or suction valve during the inspection of the suction
function, replace it with a new one already reprocessed. A leaking forceps valve or suction
valve may cause backflow of body fluid, posing an infection control risk.
(1)
Confirm that the suction unit is turned on and the suction pressure is set to 40 to 53 kPa.
(2)
Immerse the distal end of endoscope in sterile water, and check that pressing the suction valve
aspirates sterile water.
Note Check that the forceps valve has been properly attached to the instrument channel
inlet of the endoscope. If it is not attached properly, water cannot be aspirated.
(3)
Release the suction valve. Confirm that suction stops and the valve returns to its original
position.
4.7.5 Inspecting Instrument Channel
(1) Insert an endotherapy device from the instrument channel inlet with the forceps valve attached
and check that the endotherapy device comes smoothly out of the instrument channel outlet in
the distal end of the endoscope.
(2) Confirm that the endotherapy device is withdrawn easily from the forceps valve.
