The case states that an enzymatic detergent was inadvertently loaded into the disinfectant reservoir on a dsd-201 automated endoscope reprocessor.It is unknown as to whether patient scopes were run using the detergent with no disinfectant, thus potential scopes were not high level disinfected and potentially used in a patient procedure.There is potential for cross contamination between patients.Medivators technical service representative instructed them to rinse tank and flush machine, then fill reservoir appropriately with intended high level disinfectant.There have been no reports of patient illness or injury.This complaint will continue to be monitored in medivators complaint system.
