High-quality single-use endoscope performance

A brand-new endoscope for every procedure

The Ambu single-use concept means our endoscopes never deteriorate, and you stay up-to-date with the latest technology.

With Ambu single-use endoscopes, you can:
 

Expect consistent quality
and performance
Each endoscope is only used once. So unlike with reusable endoscopes, there is no deterioration of the imaging quality or the mechanical performance.

Capitalise on rapid improvements based on market input
With single-use, you don’t have to wait six or seven years for a new product release like with reusable endoscopes. Our modular approach, close collaboration with clinical specialists like you, and focus on single-use R&D enable a rapid innovation cycle.

Count on the leaders in single-use endoscopy to deliver
Ambu’s single-use endoscope solutions are used in thousands of hospitals around the world. We have built on over a decade of single-use endoscopy know-how to place a reliable, sterile and cost-effective solution in your hands.

Expect consistent quality and performance

Reusable endoscopes are used multiple times every day and continually subjected to rigorous reprocessing1. This leads to wear and tear on the inner and outer surfaces, as well as degradation of mechanical performance and imaging.

With Ambu single-use endoscopes, there is no deterioration because you use a new endoscope for every procedure. So, you don’t have to worry about damaging an expensive endoscope, and you can count on consistent quality, feel and performance every time.

Overall, the clinical performance was such that we were not cognizant of the fact that we were using a single-use endoscope during the procedure.

Ambu: Rapid ongoing improvements

Reusable: 5-7 years

Normally, it takes five or six years to renew an endoscopy series. At Ambu, there is a focus on the problems, and after one year, you get the next series. It is really amazing to see how fast you are.
