What is it indicated for?

The Endo-Scrub 2 is intended to clear the end of a rigid rod endoscope, in order to maintain good visualization of endoscopic procedures without having to remove the scope from the surgical site.

The device is indicated for use during routine diagnostic procedures and during endoscopic sinus surgery with standard mechanical instruments and lasers.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
