Abstract
Sterilization and disinfection of endoscopes take account of the risk of transmitted infections and nosocomial infections. These risks are ruled by legal texts. Urology is a high risk speciality. The material which is used must be single use or at least sterilisable (18min at 134 degrees C). Flexible endoscopes are sensitive to high temperatures and needs disinfection, and immediate use. These steps are subjected to quality control rules and marking.Entities:
