Abstract
Although endoscopes have potential sites for microorganism accumulation, transmission of infection is extremely rare. Since 1988, the estimated rate of transmitted infection is 1 in 1.8 million procedures; all of these cases can be attributed to improper cleaning and disinfection. Adherence to current guidelines for the cleaning and disinfection of endoscopes and their accessories is essential.
