PROTECH™ Flexible Endoscope Tip Protector

The PROTECH Flexible Endoscope Tip Protector is sterile and designed to protect the structural integrity of the distal tip of flexible endoscopes during transport and storage.

PROTECH Flexible Endoscope Tip Protector provides protection by:

  • Creating a protective cage-like barrier around the endoscope distal tip
  • Minimizing contact with other objects
  • Helping to prevent distal tip damage
  • Preventing the endoscope distal tip from protruding through the tip protector

PROTECH Flexible Endoscope Tip Protector promotes infection control by:

  • Featuring removable Clean/Dirty tabs that indicate scope reprocessing status
  • Enabling airflow and channel drying with an open design
  • Providing a sterile, disposable endoscope protection solution

Tip protectors should not cover the opening of the tip. Tip protectors are meant to be single-use unless otherwise specified in the manufacturer's written IFU.1
