This project is being performed to examine the results of duodenoscope cultures following standard of care cleaning and reprocessing. This information will allow us to elucidate the number of endoscopic procedures that can be performed using a single duodenoscope until microorganisms are cultured from duodenoscopes after standard of care cleaning and reprocessing. This will in turn allow us to improve the delivery of healthcare to patients undergoing endoscopic procedures.
