What does EndoSheath^® Bronchoscopy mean for the pulmonologist and the staff?  

EndoSheath^® Bronchoscopy provides the pulmonologist the ultimate in practice efficiency and high-performance bronchoscopy. Because of the unique EndoSheath^® feature of rapid turnaround, pulmonologists do not have to wait for equipment to be reprocessed, thus EndoSheath^® Bronchoscopes are always ready when the pulmonologist is ready. With Vision Sciences^® line of high performance video and fiberoptic bronchoscopes, pulmonologists get the ultimate in clinical efficiency without compromising on the functional or therapeutic procedural needs.

EndoSheath^® Bronchoscopy also provides the pulmonologist with a unique advantage unparalleled in endoscopy. Vision Sciences^® Bronchoscopes have the capacity to utilize different models of EndoSheath^® Technology sheaths, each with its own specific channel size. This allows a pulmonologist to specifically select the size of the channel depending on the procedure or the patient needs on a moment’s notice, no longer requiring a rack of various conventional procedure-specific scopes.

The EndoSheath^® Pulmonology practice staff has the opportunity for a new level of efficiency, flexibility, and safety. The EndoSheath^® technology means less staff and equipment exposure to toxic disinfection chemicals.  The simple preparation routine of the system frees up staff time normally spent on the conventional bronchoscope reprocessing routines, increasing productivity and the ability to keep room and equipment turnaround from throwing off the day’s schedule. Additionally, an “always ready” bronchoscope means that unexpected patient add-ons are easily fit into a busy day’s schedule.

For the practice itself, the EndoSheath^® technology helps keep the capital equipment budget low, by providing one flexible bronchoscope that can do the work of many conventional scopes, reducing the need for turnaround inventory. The reduced inventory and the reduced exposure to toxic chemical disinfection routines also allows for lower service and repair expenses.
