1. No mouth pad used during surgery → Patient felt nervous and bit the insertion part → Bent rubber ruptured → Endoscope water leakage
2. Poor maintenance → Bent rubber aging → Bent rubber easily ruptured → Endoscope water leakage
3. Endoscope cleaned with sharp tools or sharp edges in the cleaning tank → Bent rubber scratched → Endoscope water leakage
4. Tapping the distal end → Bent rubber ruptured → Endoscope water leakage.

1. Old cleaning brush → Channel brushed → Endoscope water leakage
2. Using inappropriate treatment accessories → Forceps channel rupture → Endoscope water leakage
3. Incorrect use of treatment accessories → Forceps channel broken → Endoscope water leakage
4. Resistance encountered during insertion, forcibly pushing the treatment accessory → Forceps channel
broken → Endoscope water leakage
Water leakage location—other parts
1. Distal end accidentally collided with hard object → Lens broken → Endoscope water leakage
2. Endoscope accidentally clamped → Endoscope damaged → Endoscope water leakage
How to avoid endoscope water leakage problems
1. Be careful when operating the endoscope.
2. The cleaning and disinfection procedures of the endoscope must be correct.
3. Promote high-quality maintenance.
4. The endoscope must be checked for water leakage before cleaning.
