ENDOCUFF VISION™, a single-use device attached to the distal end of a colonoscope, has been shown to increase adenoma detection rates (ADR)* by manipulating colonic folds and maximizing visualization during colonoscopy, hence decreasing the overall polyp miss rate.

NICE - (the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) publishes evidence-based recommendations on ENDOCUFF VISION™ for assisting visualization during colonoscopy.

Endoscopic hemostasis of gastrointestinal bleeding can be accomplished by various means, including injection, thermal coagulation and mechanical tamponade, like clipping or ligation.

The QuickClip Pro helps to maximize the efficacy of the clipping procedure by reducing tissue damage and the risk of rebleeding. It is made from Elgiloy, a high-strength alloy that is stronger yet more flexible than stainless steel, making it unique.

With the NeedleMaster, Olympus is taking needle injection to an even higher level. This innovative product offers excellent puncture performance with a new three-bevel tip, high-flow lumen for high-viscosity liquid and an ergonomic handle design with a nonslip surface.

When a situation requires an operative distance from instrument to tissue, our argon plasma coagulation probes are the right choice. A range of three different tip designs (axial, lateral and radial) covers the majority of gastrointestinal and respiratory applications.

To minimize the risk of sudden bleeding during polypectomy, the secure ligation of small and large polyps can be performed. The PolyLoop, our preassembled and ready to use device, makes endoscopic ligation safe, simple and effective.

The quality of the tissue sample is the be-all and end-all of histopathologic evaluation and diagnosis. Olympus offers a wide range of products to ensure efficient sample acquisition and safe specimen handling.

Our comprehensive line-up of biopsy forceps features a double-step blade, large cup volume and swing jaw design for easy targeting and the save collection of clean-edged specimens.

Olympus offers a wide range of polypectomy snares, available in several wire types, loop diameters and shapes. SnareMaster Plus is the latest addition to the SnareMaster family, offering an ideal solution for cold snare polypectomy.

Our SafeSnap Polyp Traps portfolio is designed to efficiently capture samples and safely handle the specimens for further evaluation.

Endoscopic foreign body retrieval offers a minimally invasive method for extractions of foreign bodies or ingested objects from the gastrointestinal tract. Olympus offers an extensive lineup of foreign body retrieval devices to meet every clinical situation, from polyp and stent retrieval to the removal of dentures, bones, coins, buttons and marbles.

With the ESG-300, Olympus has created a product that is dedicated to the needs of the endoscopist and that simultaneously overcomes the complexity associated with multipurpose generators. It focuses on providing a simple, safe and smart source of energy.

Performing more complex procedures like an ESD or argon plasma coagulation (APC), the ESG-300 together with the APU-300 can adapt to meet all electrosurgical needs.

For day-to-day applications like routine polypectomy, the user-friendly ESG-150 is the best choice offering outstanding effectiveness.

Olympus single-use procedural efficiency products are designed that you get the most from your endoscopic equipment, to improve patient outcomes, while reducing the risk of cross contamination and increasing procedural efficiency.

The latest addition to this product family is CleverShield. The single-use air/water, suction and biopsy valve kit provides a secure air/water flow and suction rate. Paired with our fully disposable tubing portfolio it provides you with a high irrigation and insufflation performance, while meeting todays Hygiene Standards. The tubing is additionally designed to work perfectly with OFP-2 pumps and UCR insufflators, for optimal flushing and lens cleaning results.

For upper endoscopy procedures, Olympus offers a single-use, latex- free mouthpiece that protects patients´ teeth and gums, as well as your scope, from damage.

To reduce the risk of damage and recontamination, PROTECH protects the endoscope during transport and storage. With only two touching points on the endoscope, the protection device allows good aeration and standard-compliant drying of endoscopes according to EN16442.

The manual cleaning of the endoscope after a procedure is imperative in order to remove biological burden and is the critical first step before high-level disinfection. To make this workflow effective and safe for all Olympus endoscopes, including the latest EVIS X1 endoscope series, the validated single-use cleaning brushes have been designed to provide the optimal outcome.
