Quick Guide for manual Reprocessing Flexible Endoscopes from Richard Wolf 1 2 3 4 Preparation / Leakage test Wipe the outer surface with a moist lint-free disposable cloth. Rinse out the channels with a 20 ml syringe filled with tap water (repeat 4 times). Connect the tube with the twist- lock valve to the pressure gauge. Contact points must be dry. Close the knurled screw and in- flate the flex. Endoscope until the initial pressure drop is in the green area (100-200mmHg). Open the knurled screw to release the pressure. Leaky if the pressure drops conti- nuously after approx. 30 sec. Return the flexible Endoscope to Richard Wolf for repair. 5 6 7 8 9 Manual Cleaning Disassembly before cleaning. Possibly, close the plug protection cap firmly. Rinse out the channels with a 20 ml syringe filled with a certi- fied cleaning solution. Immerse the flexible endoscope and the spare parts in a basin filled with a certified cleaning solution. Fill the channels completely. Brush the channels using single- use cleaning brushes. Pass the single-use cleaning brush with the brushless side through the working channel. Brush the outer surfaces on the handle of the flex. Endoscope and on the luer connectors using a cleaning brush until the surfaces look clean. 10 11 12 13 14 Rinsing Drying Rinse the flex. Endoscope and the spare parts outside using cold tap water. Rinse out the channels with a 20 ml syringe filled with tap water (2x). Dry all channels with a dry 20 ml syringe or with filtered compres- sed air (max. 1,5bar) until the air coming out is dry. Dry the outer surface of the flexible Endoscope with a lint-free dispo- sable cloth or cotton swab. Dry the outer surface of the spare parts with a lint-free disposable cloth or swab and channels with filtered compressed air, pulsed, with 5 pressure surges (2.5 - 4 bar). 15 16 17 18 Disinfection Rinsing Immerse the flexible endoscope and the spare parts in a basin filled with a certified disinfectant solution. Fill the channels completely with the disinfectant solution making sure that there are no bubbles. For filling we recommend using a syringe. Rinse the flexible Endoscope and the spare parts outside using cold water. Rinse out the channels with a 20 ml syringe filled with cold water. If disinfection is not followed by sterilization, use sterile water for rinsing inside and out. The Quick Guide is an overview. It does not replace the specific instructions for use of the respective flexible endoscope. The respective instructions for use must be observed. The Quick Guide can only be used as a supplement to the instructions for use. 19 20 21 22 …we recommend: • RIWO-Box Disinfection basin 600x400mm, REF 509.81 • RIWO-Box Disinfection basin 881x200mm, REF 6860.911 • Water jet cleaning gun incl. mounting, REF 6199.00 • Leakage tester for flexible endoscopes, REF 163.903 • Pressure equalization valve, REF 163.904 • Disposable filter for sterilization in Sterisafe ® DURO A3 for H 2 O 2 (pack = 100 pcs), REF 38203401 • Disposable filter for sterilization in Sterisafe ® DURO A3 for LTSF and EO (pack = 100 pcs), REF 38203501 • Sterisafe ® Safety seal (pack = 100 pcs), REF 382031202 • Cleaning brushes see separate table Drying Maintenance Dry all channels until the air coming out is dry: dry 20 ml syringe filtered compressed air (max. 1,5 bar) steriler alcohol (70% Iso- propanol, 10ml) and a dry syringe (20ml) Dry the outer surface with a lint-free disposable cloth or cotton swab. Dry the outer surface of the spare parts with a lint-free disposable cloth or swab and channels with fil- tered compressed air, pulsed, with 5 pressure surges (2.5-4 bar). Wipe the light exit surfaces with a sterile cotton swab soaked with steri- le alcohol (70% Isopropanol). 23 24 Sterilization H 2 O 2 , LTSF, EO For sterilization with H 2 O 2 or EO use the pressure equalization valve. All connectors must be dry. For sterilization with H 2 O 2 in a Sterrad 100S use the pressure equalization valve and boosters. Only in flex. endoscopes with a channel length > 500 mm and Ø < 1,0 mm For sterilization with LTSF use the LTSF-valve.. All connectors must be dry. Assembly of spare parts before sterili- zation according to the instructions for use, e.g. light connectors, stopcocks, etc. 25 Packaging Storage For the low-temperature sterilization procedures H 2 O 2 , LTSF and EO, we recommend our universally applicable sterilization basket for flexible endos- copes (REF. 85841240), in which flexible endoscope and accessory parts are optimally stored and protected against vibrations during sterilization and transport. For the low-temperature sterilization procedures H 2 O 2 , LTSF and EO as well as for sterile storage and transport, we recommend our Sterisafe ® DURO A3 (REF. 382032000 for H 2 O 2 / REF. 382032100 for LTSF and EO), which has a positive influ- ence on the material compatibility of the flexible endoscope in sterilization processes with H 2 O 2 . No sterile packaging required by using disposable filters and the prin- ciple of Pasteur‘s loop between lid and base. The Sterisafe ® DURO A3 for H 2 O 2 is not suitable for "COBRA vision" and "COBRA vision EF". For the low-temperature sterilization processes H 2 O 2 , LTSF and EO, our universally applicable RIWO system trays (REF. 38201.xxx) are suitable, in which flexible endoscope and accessory parts are safely stored during sterilization and transport.

For the low-temperature sterilization procedures H2O2, LTSF and EO, we recommend our universally applicable sterilization basket for flexible endos-copes (REF. 85841240), in which flexible endoscope and accessory parts are optimally stored and protected against vibrations during sterilization and transport.

For the low-temperature sterilization procedures H2O2, LTSF and EO as well as for sterile storage and transport, we recommend our Sterisafe® DURO A3 (REF. 382032000 for H2O2 / REF. 382032100 for LTSF and EO), which has a positive influ-ence on the material compatibility of the flexible endoscope in sterilization processes with H2O2.

No sterile packaging required by using disposable filters and the prin-ciple of Pasteur‘s loop between lid and base.

The Sterisafe® DURO A3 for H2O2 is not suitable for "COBRA vision" and "COBRA vision EF".

For the low-temperature sterilization processes H2O2, LTSF and EO, our universally applicable RIWO system trays (REF. 38201.xxx) are suitable, in which flexible endoscope and accessory parts are safely stored during sterilization and transport.
