ProTech™ is a sterile, safe and highly effective method of protecting the delicate optics at the distal tip of the endoscope.
Designed to offer secure protection during the transport and storage of the endoscope whilst maintaining breathability. The smart lock feature and clean / dirty tab prevents re-use with subsequent scopes. It has a unique design that allows the scope tip to aerate, which reduces moisture and reduces the formation of bio-burden.
- Not intended for use during sterilisation.
- Suitable for use in drying cabinets
ProTech™ is available in THREE sizes: (Outer diameter range of the endoscopes)
XL fits endoscopes 10.7mm – 17.9mm
L fits endoscopes 8.7mm – 14.7mm
S fits endoscopes 2.7mm – 8mm
Proven results!
King George’s hospital, London completed a successful trial with ProTech™ which was presented at the ESGENA conference in Barcelona, 2017. Use of ProTech™ resulted in 87.5% improvement in distal tip damage over a 5 month period. Click here to read white paper.
According to endoscope manufacturers and repairers the tip of the endoscope must be protected:
Olympus – Proper scope care and handling can dramatically affect the lifespan of an endoscope.
Pentax – Lenses, cover glasses and the distal end can be damaged if subjected to a significant shock. Carefully handling and transporting it will reduce the risk of impact damage.
IMS – 70% of flexible endoscopes sent out for repair are damaged by improper care and handling. It is most important to protect the tip during its cabinet placement, retrieval, and/or movement

“I was introduced to this item at a National SHNA course. I was so intrigued that I told my then manager about it and we have been using it. Our HLD department is centralized now. We have decreased the damage to the distal tip of endoscope. Awesome product.”
“I wish all the endo facility would like to use this type of product. this will help them, from the damage such as, cracked C cover, Light Guide Lenses, Objective Lens, Dented air/water nozzle. And it will help themselves by washing/reprocessing much faster/safer.”
