The enspire™ 300 Series Automated Endoscope Reprocessor System is intended to effectively provide a pressure and channel monitor, clean, high-level disinfect, rinse and air purge validated immersible, reusable, semi-critical, heat sensitive medical devices including, but not limited to, flexible endoscopes and non-channeled naso-endoscopes. The validated cleaning process replaces manual cleaning for endoscopes other than duodenoscopes. Manual Cleaning of endoscopes is required prior to placement in high level disinfection only cycle.
The enspire 300 Series Automated Endoscope Reprocessor System uses Revital-Ox PAA High Level Disinfectant to provide high level disinfection of validated immersible, reusable, semi-critical, heat sensitive medical devices. It automatically mixes the Part A and Part B solutions, high level disinfects the load during a controlled cycle and rinses the load. The wash phase of the enspire 300 Series Automated Endoscope Reprocessor System cycle uses only Revital-Ox 2X Concentrate Enzymatic Detergent to perform cleaning.
The Revital-Ox PA High Level Disinfectant (HLD) is a two-part solution, which when mixed, is intended to provide high level disinfection of validated immersible, reusable, semi-critical, heat sensitive medical devices including, but not limited to, flexible endoscopes and non-channeled naso-endoscopes, when used in the enspire 300 AER.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
