  • Single-Use Duodenoscopes and Duodenoscopes with Disposable End Caps
    REPORT ON EMERGING TECHNOLOGY Single-use duodenoscopes and duodenoscopes with disposable end caps Prepared by: ASGE TECHNOLOGY COMMITTEE Arvind J. Trindade, MD,1,* Andrew Copland, MD,2,* Amit Bhatt, MD,3 Juan Carlos Bucobo, MD, FASGE,4 Vinay Chandrasekhara, MD, FASGE,5 Kumar Krishnan, MD,6 Mansour A. Parsi, MD, MPH, FASGE,7 Nikhil Kumta, MD, MS,8 Ryan Law, DO,9 Rahul Pannala, MD, MPH, FASGE,10 Erik F. Rahimi, MD,11 Monica Saumoy, MD, MS,12 Guru Trikudanathan, MBBS,13 Julie Yang, MD, FASGE,14 David R. Lichtenstein, MD, FASGE, (Chair, Technology Committee)15 This document was reviewed and approved by the Governing Board of the American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy. Background and Aims: Multidrug-resistant infectious outbreaks associated with duodenoscopes have been documented internationally. Single-use duodenoscopes, disposable distal ends, or distal end cap sealants could eliminate or reduce exogenous patient-to-patient infection associated with ERCP. Methods: This document reviews technologies that have been developed to help reduce or eliminate exogenous infections because of duodenoscopes. Results: Four duodenoscopes with disposable end caps, 1 end sheath, and 2 disposable duodenoscopes are re- viewed in this document. The evidence regarding their efficacy in procedural success rates, reduction of duode- noscope bacterial contamination, clinical outcomes associated with these devices, safety, and the financial considerations are discussed. Conclusions: Several technologies discussed in this document are anticipated to eliminate or reduce exogenous infections during endoscopy requiring a duodenoscope. Although disposable duodenoscopes can eliminate exog- enous ERCP-related risk of infection, data regarding effectiveness are needed outside of expert centers. Addition- ally, with more widespread adoption of these new technologies, more data regarding functionality, medical economics, and environmental impact will accrue.
