Flexible and rigid endoscopes

[@Sazonman]

This Friday I got accepted into the CSPD program at my community college, though I missed the application and orientation dead line window so, the instructors for the program pushed it through and had me sign the application for the program and I did the orientation at her office, my class course start the following Monday and I can't wait to begin.
I've been watching your UA-cam videos and really enjoy all the information your giving not just to your class students, but to all of us soon to be CSPD UA-cam students, thank you and please continue recording the video they come in very handy to many of us.👍🏼👏🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Can this title be changed to endoscopes cleaning?

[@kaitlynmera374]

is there an order to clean endoscopes when it comes to cleaning the one that takes the longest first to shortest time ? colonoscope, gastroscope, esophagoscope, and a flexible bronchoscope Based on the IFUs which scope or scopes would you process first, and why?

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

@@kaitlynmera374 the best answer here is follow the department policies.

[@umlana2896]

If the flexible scope did not pass in leak test, can we clean it and make it safe for handling before we send it to the biomedical engineering? Or we must stop and not going for further step which is cleaning? Or it is dependent on local policy?

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

Stop and send as is. You may wipe the scope off without water.

[@franchescaasamoah3046]

You should still clean it and then send to d repair Dept

[@abigailtetteh5604]

No you can not use it if it damaged.

[@carissasullivan6590]

Is this everything that pertains to Endo and Rigid scopes that will be on the test or is there more? Thanks!

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

The new test has much less info on endoscopes since iahcsmm introduced the CER certification. This is more than you need to know.

This topic deserves a redo with a plan, not just off-the-cuff rambling.

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

This "off the cuff rambling" as you put it is by the book and on the money! If you have constructive feedback please bring it forward.

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

The best place to start is here. myhspa.org/certification/certification-overview/ there is no magic fix.

[@jayantilaishom6943]

Sir please tell me strip name for high level disinfectant for testing

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

If I understand your question correctly you are looking for the MEC (minimum effective concentration) Chemical Indicator. There are different brands specific to the type of HLD used.
