Endoscope storage solution

Following endoscope reprocessing, endoscopes need to be used within four hours unless stored under the right conditions. The new LTE Scope-Store is a special secure storage cabinet which has been specifically designed to facilitate endoscope storage for up to 72 hours without the need for reprocessing before use.

Within the Scope-Store range up to 10 endoscopes can be stored are dried both inside and out utilising HEPA filtered air. Operator access to the cabinet is PIN-coded via the touch screen control panel. Monitor timers for each scope within the unit allows easy visibility of elapsed storage period. Full traceability of each endoscope’s storage conditions is available either in printed form or can be downloaded to a PC. Currently three models are available – a vertical hanging unit with a five or 10 scope capacity and a shelfloaded model with an eight scope capacity.

LTE’s Scope Store has been independently tested. Results are available on request.
