Frequently asked questions
Does this kit enhance patient safety?
Yes, the Defendo Endoscope Valve Kit is designed to significantly improve patient safety. By providing a sterile, single-use alternative to traditional reusable valves, it effectively eliminates the risk of cross-contamination often associated with complex valve cleaning and reprocessing.
Are these valves compatible with my Fujifilm 700 series?
Yes, these valves are specifically engineered for precise compatibility with Fujifilm 700 Series endoscopes. They ensure reliable performance and a seamless fit for your clinical procedures.
Does it simplify clinical workflow?
Absolutely. By switching to a single-use solution, your facility can:
- Eliminate labor-intensive cleaning and manual reprocessing.
- Remove the burden of tracking individual valves through your reprocessing cycle.
- Focus clinical time on patient care rather than maintenance.
What is included in this 2-piece kit?
Each kit provides the essential components for a procedure:
- 1 x Air/Water Valve
- 1 x Suction Valve
Is the sterile design reliable for surgical environments?
Yes, Steris manufactures these valves to professional, medical-grade standards. They are designed to meet the rigorous demands of clinical, surgical, and endoscopic environments where high standards for infection control are required.
