Olympus EndoTherapy devices are the perfect match for your precious endoscopes. Biopsy forceps are used in over 80% of procedures. For the longevity of endoscopes they need to be developed and manufactured at highest standards.

Using inappropriate or damaged devices may save you money now, but you could end up spending thousands of EURO on repairs for your scopes.

 

 

 
These are the nightmares of your scopes:
 
  • Too large diameter accessories
  • Too long rigid distal ends
  • Sharp edges
  • Kinks and buckles
  • Badly engineered devices
Scratched biopsy channels present an infection control risk.

 

The right balance of sheath flexibility
  • Endoscopic accessories need to allow appropriate bending of the scope.
  • Olympus EndoTherapy devices allow smooth insertion and functionality also in angulated scopes.
  • The optimized stability of the sheath enables also excellent sampling of hard tissue and complex manoeuvres.

 

What makes an accessory compatible?
The channel size of your endoscope is measured in fractions of mm - your accessories must be exactly the right size to pass through safely.

   
Sufficient sample size with elongated cups in slim channels Sufficient sample size with wide cups in large diameter channels

 

 

Smooth insertion into and smooth operation in angulated scopes

A specially slimmed distal end design allows smooth passage also in curves.

     

 

 

Compliant bending facilitates insertion into angulated scopes
  • The EndoJaw distal end allows a compliant bending inside of bent channels.
  • This facilitates the insertion into angulated endoscopes.

   

 

 

Precise manipulation also in severe bending

EndoJaw allows smooth opening and closing also in severely bent situations.

What makes a good biopsy bite?
Cutting versus tearing:
    Tearing big portions
of tissue can cause
heavy bleeding. 
Collected tissue does not
appear at the edge of the cups		 Collected tissue appears at the
edge of the cups, which means
tissue is not cut completely		  
     

Excellent design: EndoJaw double step blade
 

Advantages:

  •  less bleeding,
  •  reliable & big
     biopsy samples
  
EndoJaw‘s double step blade
(A). As thin as possible
(B). 90° edge of the base
    
     Precise cup to cup blade in-line positioning

In line closing in any situation
  • The EndoJaw biopsy forceps give a precise tactile feeling when the cups are
        open and closed. Only little force is required to manipulate the cups.
  • Nevertheless, in situations when more force is applied, EndoJaw ensures precise
        closure also in these situation.
  • No harm to scope channels.
    •  

    Big bites: Smooth Swinging Function
    EndoJaw anchors also tangentially into mucosa walls thus allowing for extra large bites even in difficult situations.

         

     

    The right instrument for any application
  • The diameter of the biopsy channel of your scope defines the maximum size
        of biopsy samples possible.
  • EndoJaw allows a maximum of high quality sample tissue with still a scope
        safe design of the forceps.
  • For extra large bites choose a large channel endoscope and EndoJaw for
        3,7 mm biopsy channels.
