软式消化内镜由于结构和材质的特殊性,给内镜再处理带来困难,因内镜再处理失败而引发的院内感染时常发生。严格执行相关指南/国家标准和厂家的使用说明,对防止内镜相关院内感染的发生、保障患者安全至关重要。2020年,美国胃肠内镜学会(American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy,ASGE)发布了《软式消化内镜及配件的再处理多协会指南》。本文对该指南中内镜再处理部分进行解读,以促进内镜洗消人员对软式内镜再处理流程的认识和重视,为临床实践提供参考。

Due to the special structure and material of the flexible gastrointestinal(GI)endoscopes,it is difficult to reprocess endoscopes.Infections caused by endoscope reprocessing failure often occur.Strict implementation of the guidelines/relevant national standards and manufacturer's instructions is essential to prevent the occurrence of endoscopy-related infections and ensure patient safety.In 2020,ASGE(American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy)released the"multisociety guideline on reprocessing flexible GI endoscopes and accessories".This paper aimed to promote the understanding of the reprocessing process of flexible GI endoscopes by the endoscope decontamination staff,and to provide references for clinical practice.
