Event or Problem Description
|
|
Olympus was informed that during an onsite visit, it was observed that a residual whitish foreign material was found inside the jet-tube.The use of products that contain silicone can cause deposits of white foreign material.If the customer used them, there was risk that foreign material was remained in the channel even if the reprocessing was conducted in accordance with ifu.Simethicone and petroleum/oil/silicone-based lubricants are non-water soluble and thus not recommended for use by olympus.No patient infections or injuries reported.
