A true breakthrough in flexible endoscope reprocessing, the Nanosonics CORIS® System provides a world-first automated, validated and traceable cleaning process designed to address the risks and limitations associated with manual cleaning.
Lives depend on effective cleaning and this new system ensures a superior clean - like never before. Key benefits include:
- A new benchmark in efficacy: Revolutionary Pulsed Suspended Solids (PULSS) technology delivers the physical friction required to remove soils and tough biofilm from all narrow, branched and hard-to-access internal channels, even unbrushable ones.
- Engineered for consistency: Built to reduce process variability and support more consistent, repeatable internal channel cleaning outcomes.
- Protect your team: Designed to reduce physical burden and exposure risks by automating a critical manual cleaning step within a closed-system workflow.
- Smarter workflows: Reduces labour-intensive manual steps, helping teams spend more time on quality, compliance and other essential reprocessing tasks.
- Confirm and trace every cycle: Records validated cleaning parameters for every cycle, supporting traceability, verification and audit readiness.
Flexible endoscopes
It’s time to go beyond manual cleaning. Cleaning is a complex, but critical step in reprocessing flexible endoscopes. But manual cleaning the internal channels is inherently inconsistent, physically demanding, and can leave contamination behind, even when protocols are strictly followed.
The system helps overcome the following challenges:
- Hidden risks to patients: Flexible endoscopes contain narrow, intricate channels that are difficult or impossible to brush manually. Even with careful manual cleaning, residual organic soil and biofilm can persist , contributing to contamination risk.
- Inconsistent outcomes: Despite the care and effort of reprocessing staff, manual cleaning outcomes can vary between individuals, shifts and workloads, making reliable, repeatable results difficult to achieve across departments and facilities.
- Demands on staff: Manual endoscope cleaning involves repetitive motions, chemical handling and exposure to contamination. This places ongoing physical demands on reprocessing teams and can increase the risk of fatigue and injury.
- Pressure on time and resources: Manual cleaning is highly complex and labour-intensive. This places significant demands on staff time and attention, adding pressure in busy reprocessing environments.
- Record-keeping limitations: Current processes often rely on manual record- keeping. This captures only selected steps in the reprocessing workflow, which offers limited traceability.
