Endoscopy debate: Cartel or compliance?

The Central Sterilising Club’s Annual Scientific Meeting provided delegates with a unique opportunity to view a discussion on endoscopy decontamination – and whether there is a ‘chemistry cartel’. The Clinical Services Journal now offers you the opportunity to read both sides of the argument and to take part in this debate.

During the Central Sterilising Club conference in Cardiff there was a debate on the use of third party chemicals in the decontamination process. For years this has been seen to be a topic which has not been highlighted enough so it was a great opportunity with so many decontamination managers and healthcare professionals to discuss the topic and have a vote.

Ean Whalley, Serve Medical, represented the ‘for’ side, and John Pendergrast, NHS Wales Shared Services Partnership/Specialist Estates represented the ‘against’.
