Drying of endoscopes
After cleaning of the endoscopes they will also require hygienic drying process of the endoscope channels. According to the Robert Koch Institute and the German Medical Association, the drying of endoscopes after manual preparation plays an important role in the sterilization (cleanliness) of the product. In order to avoid recontamination, it is recommended that after cleaning, disinfection and rinsing all residual liquids are blown from the channels within endoscopes with hygienic and dry compressed air form a Durr Technik oil-free compressor.
