The single use BioGuard air/water valve (4-piece) is used to control the air / water function of an endoscope during GI endoscopic procedures. The single use BioGuard suction valve is used to control the suction function of an endoscope during GI endoscopic procedures. The single use BioShield biopsy valve is used to cover the opening to the biopsy/suction channel of the gastrointestinal endoscope. The BioShield biopsy valve provides access for endoscopic device passage and exchange, helps maintain insufflation, minimizes leakage of biomaterial from the biopsy port thought the endoscopic procedure and provides access for irrigation. The single use Torrent irrigation scope connector is used in conjunction with the Torrent irrigation tubing to provide irrigation via irrigation fluids such as sterile water supplied during gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures when used in conjunction with an irrigation pump (or electrosurgical unit).
