An official Health Canada notice concerns Evis exera iii duodenovideoscope. Olympus is conducting this recall following recent post-market surveillance data suggesting a possible association of higher microbial contamination levels from TJF duodenoscopes when manual cleaning was delayed beyond one hour and a presoak was performed, compared to those TJF duodenoscopes where manual cleaning began within one hour after patient procedure. The reprocessing manual for the TJF-Q190V has been updated to remove the presoak step and includes instructions that require manual cleaning to begin within one hour after patient procedure for the TJF duodenoscope.
