- Reason
- Residual high-level disinfectant solution remaining in endoscopes that have been reprocessed in the ASP Automatic Endoscope Reprocessor. If high-level disinfectant, or other fluids, remains in the endoscope after reprocessing, contact with the mucous membranes may occur and result in chemical burns, irritation (chemical colitis), or other symptoms.

- Action
- ASP is mailing customer notification CL-101367 and AD-52976-001 in an Urgent Product Correction envelope starting the week of September 8, 2008. The letter advises that the firm has received customer reports of residual high-level disinfectant solution remaining in endoscopes that have been reprocessed in the ASP Automatic Endoscope Reprocessor (AER). If high-level disinfectant, or other fluids, remain in the endoscope after reprocessing, contact with patient mucous membranes may occur and result in chemical burns, irritation (chemical colitis), or other symptoms. ASP has tested the PENTAX 70 series endoscopes containing FWJ (Forward Water Jet) and has confirmed that residual fluids may remain in the PENTAX 70 series endoscopes with a FWJ after reprocessing. To eliminate any residual fluids, ASP is recommending customers follow the revised instructions when reprocessing PENTAX 70 series endoscopes with a FWJ. A copy of the revised instructions is provided with the notification letter.
