New Duodenoscope Technologies
New duodenoscope technologies such as single-use endcaps and single-use duodenoscopes are evolving and are designed to help reduce the risk of cross-contamination due to ineffective reprocessing.
Comparison of Single-Use Duodenoscope vs. Single-Use Endcaps
The FDA stated "...the best path to reducing the risk of disease transmission by duodenoscopes is through innovative device designs... that make reprocessing easier, more effective or unnecessary." EXALT Model D Single-Use Duodenoscope completely eliminates the need for reprocessing to provide multiple benefits.
| Benefit* | EXALT Model D | Single-Use Endcaps |
| Eliminates risk of patient infection due to ineffective reprocessing | Yes | No |
| Enhances infection prevention efforts aligning with 2019 FDA Safety Communication* | Yes | Yes |
| Eliminates duodenoscope reprocessing training and compliance | Yes | No |
| Decreases waste from reprocessing such as disinfecting consumables | Yes | No |
Ready to see how a single-use duodenoscope performs in ERCP?
Where in a duodenoscope can biofilm exist?
Single-use endcaps alone do not eliminate the risk of cross-contamination associated with reprocessing reusable scopes. Cross-contamination has been linked to other contaminated parts of a duodenoscope.
