Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Gastrointestinal endoscopy are widely performed from the screening of gastrointestinal disease through the treatment. The establishment of more effective cleaning methods and the appropriate indicator are desired. From the analysis of previous reports of cross infection via gastrointestinal endoscopy, we confirmed the change of infected pathogens and type of the endoscope. Recently antimicrobial resistant bacteria infection via the duodenoscope has been increased. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an indicator of cleanliness used on site such as food hygiene. This study confirmed the usefulness of the ATP in the infection control of GI endoscopy and the standard cleaning procedure is appropriate, however, the cleanliness may differ depending on the endoscope type and the sample site from the endoscope.
