Abstract

Automatic endoscope reprocessors can replace some manual reprocessing steps. However, thorough mechanical cleaning is still required prior to their use. Use of an AER may reduce exposure of personnel to chemical germicides. There is insufficient data to recommend a particular method or device to achieve high level disinfection.
