Helping to reduce hospital theft

Endoscopes are often the target of criminal gangs stealing medical equipment. Hospitals can ensure their safer storage says DAWMED INTERNATIONAL by using its Wassenburg Dry 300 Drying and Storage Cabinet with key safety features that include doors with electronic locks, touch screen control, and user identification.

As well as extra security, the Dry 300 allows for effective drying of the endoscopes and is among the range of total decontamination solutions from Dawmed International – the UK’s largest specialist medical washer-disinfector-dryer manufacturer.

For example, if following the washdisinfection process the endoscope is not stored in the Dry 300 and not used within three hours, the wash-disinfection process has to be repeated before reuse.

However, washed and disinfected endoscopes can be safely stored for up to 72 hours in the Dry 300 in a sterile environment with no risk of contamination.
