Manufacturer Narrative

Evaluation summary: during the pre-procedure check, so we asked to inspect the scopes at the pentax repair center and found that air/water port o-rings were getting chipped or damaged which was the direct cause of not insufflating eus balloons on these scopes.In a further investigation on site, it was found that the same port was getting brush cleaning as well as air drying with a powerful jet.Both were making the o-ring rubber more fragile and susceptible to breaking more frequently and easily.Pentax customer representative was able to correct this by providing user training and correct steps as per the ifu.These measures have eliminated the root cause and have been confirmed to have resolved the complaint.
