Endoscopic Supplies
If your medical practice offers endoscopy, then you probably already know that there are endoscopic supplies needed on a regular basis to keep the equipment running and your patients safe. Many of these products are considered consumables (one-time-use) and just like finding the best value on the initial purchase of your endoscopy equipment buying the high-quality consumables at the lowest cost makes a big difference in your practices balance sheet each year.
There's plenty of different endoscopic products that you'll need that are more often than not one-time-use. Some of those categorically are:
- AER Filters and Water Filters
- Enzymatic Detergents and Disinfectants
- HLD / Test Strips
- Xeon Lamps and Light Sources
- Printer Paper and Printer Ribbon
- Endoscope Tip Protectors
As mentioned, most of these are one time use for good reason, the safety of your patients. If you're not buying high quality endoscopy supplies and consumables there's may be a higher chance of infection for your patients depending on the endoscopic products we're talking about.
AER Filters and Water FiltersWater filters are definitely a consumable that needs to be replaced on a regular basis outlined by your AER (automated endoscopic repressor) manufacturer. While this is not typically a one-time use item, they none-the-less are critically important to replace at the specified times and values outlined by the manufacturer. MedService Repair has offered OEM compatible filters for all the top brands for years and knows the best filters to use. Our long history of professionally repairing AERs has given us the insight needed to know what works and we're happy to pass that information on to you as our clients.
We carry compatible disinfectant filters and water filters for Medivators / Cantel, ASP/ Johnson & Johnson, Olympus, Custom Ultrasonic and Steris at discounted prices.
Detergents and DisinfectantsThe detergents and disinfectants required to maintain endoscopy equipment are another endoscopic supply that is used consistently and will be a regular expense for your practice. We carry products from a number manufacturers making high-quality detergents and disinfectants. Some of those include Sani ProZyme, Efferzyme, EmPower and Endozime.
HLD/Test StripsAnother endoscopic supply / consumable that you'll be going through are HLD (high level disinfection) Test Strips. Using consumable endoscopic products that meet the MRC (minimum required concentration) verifications is critical. And we've researched the options and offer what we believe is some of the best value endoscopy supplies manufactured. They meet or exceed the manufacturer's recommendations for all the major brands. These test strips can be used with the Advantage, Advantage Plus, All Flushing Pumps, ASP AER Compatible, ASP AER Evotech (2 can), ASP AER Evotech (3 can), CER Optima, Custom Ultrasonics, DSD-Edge, DSD-91E, DSD201, Fujinon, MV1 / CER1, MV2 / CER2, Reliance EPS, Steris, SSD-102, System 1E, 83 Plus2, 83 Plus 9.
The ease of use matters as well of course. With easy-to-read indicator pads and an intuitive pass/fail colors to match to the color chart on the bottle it doesn't get much better. Add to that the quick 3-second dip time and a 90-second read time and these make perfect sense for your practice.
