ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the disinfection effect of the endoscope disinfection machine with acidic oxidizing poten‐tial water on the fiber bronchoscopy .Methods Totlly 460 cases of contamination after diagnosis and treatment in the department , were randomly divided into experimental group (using electrolyzed oxidizing water as disinfectant ;according to the cleaning and dis‐infection of endoscope Koeman brand ECM‐03A type machine bronchoscope disinfection) and control group (with 2% glutaralde‐hyde disinfectant of the traditional five tank cleaning disinfection method ) ,evaluation of endoscopic surface cleanliness ,surface at‐tachment ,pipe blockage and bacterial colony detection .Results The experimental group was better than the control group in the aspects of endoscopic surface cleanliness ,mirror surface attachment ,pipe blockage and so on ;The number of sterile growth in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group ,both in the inner cavity sampling method and the outside sampling method .The number of cases of ≥20 CFU/piece in the experimental group was significantly less than that in the control group , with the cavity sampling method ,the qualified rate of the experimental group was also significantly higher than that of the control group ,the difference was statistically significant (P< 0 .05) .Conclusion The application of acidic oxidizing potential water as a disinfectant in the whole automatic endoscope disinfection machine significantly improve the quality of cleaning and disinfection ,at the same time ,and reduce human labor strength ,improve the application efficiency of fiber bronchoscopy ,worthy of promotion .
