US Endoscopy announces the release of the US Endoscopy GI Compliance Kit, which provides the basic supplies needed to begin a GI endoscopy procedure and is designed to help improve efficiencies and streamline procedure set-up.
The new single-use GI Compliance Kit standardizes infection control practices to protect patients, staff and equipment. One kit is used per procedure, and then discarded, helping to minimize cross-contamination between procedures.
“Improving efficiencies and patient care is always a top priority of our customers,” says Tony Siracusa, vice president and general manager of US Endoscopy. “Offering a convenient kit that helps standardize ordering and procedure set-up, is another example of how we are listening to the needs of our Customers and delivering a solution.”
