Healthmark Introduces New Endoscope Brush

February 29, 2016

Article

Healthmark Industries announces the addition of the Small Bore Endoscope Channel Brush to its ProSys™ instrument care line. Created for the same purpose as expensive reusable brushes, this single-use 1mm diameter brush is a suitable alternative designed for flexible endoscopes that have a balloon suction channel or an instrument channel diameter between 1.0 and 1.5mm. Fastened to white thermoplastic tubing for flexibility, the brush tip has nylon bristles and connects to a stainless-steel wire core. The agile and maneuverable design allows the shaft to be pulled entirely through the endoscope channel, reducing the chance of redepositing loosened debris.
