Minimally Invasive Surgery uses state of the art technology to access body
(MIS) cavities and reduce the damage to human
tissue during procedures.
A collection of microorganisms that attach to
surfaces and each other and form a colony. The
Biofilm colony produces a protective gel that is very
difficult to penetrate with detergents and
disinfectants.
The longer it persists the harder it is to remove.
Diagnostic Endoscope the process of attempting to determine or identify a
possible disease or disorder.
Therapeutic/Operative used to perform procedures, tumor ablation, dilation.
Endoscope
light guide tube (light Connects to the light source
connector)

knobs, elevator/lifter, air/water, suction control
valves, remote video switches, biopsy port
and focus mechanism.
internal instrument Allows insertion of instruments and allows for
channel (working certain procedures to be performed. (Polyp
channel) removal etc.)
Insertion Tube The long, narrow portion of the flexible endoscope that
is inserted into the body.
Bending Section (Distal articulating end, aids with insertion into curved areas.
Tip)
Deflection the ability of the tip of a flexible endoscope to bend
(using control knobs) to
increase the area that can be accessed by a physician
visually or with an instrument
ECRI Institute a nonprofit patient safety organization,
identified "inadequate cleaning of flexible
endoscopes before disinfection" as the
number one health technology hazard
CRE carbapenem resistant enterobacteriaceae
Duodenoscopy inspection of the duodenum with a scope
Colonoscope used to examine the lower GI tract.
Enteroscope used to examine the small intestine
Bronchoscope used to examine the throat, larynx, trachea and lower
airways
