Endoscopists’ first experiences with a single-use flexible gastroscope
Evaluations indicated that the aScope Gastro single-use endoscopy solution is a valuable alternative to reusable flexible gastroscopes
Post-ERCP procedure survey
Based on 500+ evaluations of the single-use Ambu® aScope™ Duodeno
Endoscopists in 13 European countries were asked to evaluate the single-use aScope Duodeno endoscope immediately after an ERCP procedure. In 93% of the cases, physicians marked their overall satisfaction level as positive or neutral. In 76% of the cases, they commented positively on the radiolucent tip due to the improved visualization that this unique feature offers.
