Abstract:
Objective To investigate the safety of cleaning and disinfection of duodenoscope used in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP).Methods The duodenoscopes,which were used in Endoscopy Center of Digestive Disease Hospital,Heilongjiang Provincial Hospital from May 4 to May 31 2016,were cleaned manually and disinfected with sterilization powder.The samples from elevator and elevator channel were collected for bacterial culture to evaluate the safety of clinical application of duodenoscope.Results Among 60 high level disinfections,one was excluded because disinfectant concentration wasn't effective.Among 59 elevator samples no positive cultures were detected,while among 59 channel samples,4(6.8%) cultures were positive and all from the same duodenoscope,including 3 cases of Klebsiella pneumonia and 1 case of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Conclusion Sterilization powder is effective for disinfection of duodenoscope used for ERCP.Residual organic material can't be excluded from elevator sample even if it is negative for culture.Duodenoscope with high level disinfection still has the risk of transmitted infection,and should be monitored regularly by culture and reprocessed in time.
