With Fujifilm conventional mouthpieces, the endoscope is thus protected from damage. The \u201cDroplet Reduction Mouthpiece&#8221; is one part of Fujifilm\u2019s response to support healthcare professionals in these difficult times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The accessory is easy to handle and does not inconvenience the patient when compared to using a standard mouthpiece. The accessory can be used with different types of endoscopes with various diameters, ensuring that there are no gaps between the endoscope and the mouthpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Features of the Mouthpiece \u201cB1\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Mouthpiece \u201cB1\u201d also comes with a drape shield for covering a patient&#8217;s face. It shields healthcare workers from patients during peroral endoscopy, thereby reducing the risk of viral infection by way of droplet transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It reduces the spread of aerosol droplets by incorporating sponges which have slits in the insertion part of the mouthpiece where the endoscope is introduced, this design ensures that there are no gaps between the endoscope and the mouthpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mouthpiece is designed with extra depth to create space between the face shield and the patient\u2019s face to maximize air ventilation for the patient. It also reduces discomfort caused by covering the face with the shield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Internal tests have shown that, the \u201cB1\u201d cuts more than 99%  of respiratory droplets measuring 5\u03bcm or larger produced by coughing when compared to Fujifilm&#8217;s conventional  mouthpiece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, please visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fujifilm.eu\/fujinon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">http:\/\/www.fujifilm.eu\/fujinon<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Safety and protection for patients and healthcare professionals during routine procedures is imperative for Fujifilm, which it intends to pursue by constantly innovating its offering of accessories and instruments for endoscopy.
