Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for providing liquid to an endoscope system. A fluid supply system may include a plurality of water reservoirs in fluid communication with one another to ensure a sufficient amount of water is available for endoscope procedures. The fluid supply system may include a first tubing subset configured to provide liquid to the endoscope and a second tubing subset configured to provide supplemental water to a reservoir in communication with the first tubing subset. Supplemental water may be pressurized via a pump, a liquid flow, and/or a via a gas flow. In some cases, a venturi siphon or a bridge siphon may be utilized to maintain pressure in the water reservoirs.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for mitigating leakage from connectors and tubing of an endoscope system when the connectors and or tubing are disconnected from fluid ports of the endoscope system. A tubing assembly for connecting a fluid line to an endoscope and a fluid source may include an elongate tube having a lumen, a connector coupled to an end of the elongate tube and having a port in fluid communication with the lumen, and a fluid control component configured to selective adjust fluid flow through the lumen and the port. The fluid control component may be located in one or more of a cover for the fluid source, the tubing, the connector, and/or other components in fluid communication with the lumen. The fluid control component may be a valve. The valve may be manually actuated from a closed position to an opened position.

Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a flow of fluid to an endoscope. An illustrative container and tube set arranged and configured to couple to an endoscope may comprise a first container configured to contain a fluid and having a first port in fluid communication with a bottom portion thereof. A pressure vessel system may be in selective fluid communication with the first container. The pressure vessel system may include a manifold housing defining a cavity and including a first fluid inlet, a second fluid inlet, and a first fluid outlet. A first water supply tube may be in selective fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing and a first gas supply tube may be in operative fluid communication with the cavity of the manifold housing. A first flow control member may be positioned within the first fluid inlet.

Abstract: The cleaning valves (or valves) of the current disclosure are generally single-use devices (SUDs) and therefore disposable. Reusing SUDs can be disadvantageous, as single-use devices are not designed to be reusable. Accordingly, valves for medical devices, such as endoscopes, disclosed may be configured to transition from a first state to a second state for indication of utilization of the valve, e.g., via exposure to a valve well. The transition from the first state to the second state may prevent reuse valves of the present disclosure. In embodiments, the valve may be made from a limited number of components and materials.

Abstract: Systems and methods for preventing leaks from an endoscope end of a tube set during equipment changes between endoscopic procedures. An illustrative system may comprise a storage case and a cap. The storage case may comprise a base including a plurality of wells, an insert disposed in each well of the plurality of wells, and a lid configured to cover the base. The cap may have a housing extending from a first open end to a second closed end and defining a cavity between the first open end and the second closed end and may be configured to be removably disposed within a well of the plurality of wells.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for connecting tubes to an endoscope. A connector for connecting tubing, such as gas/lens wash tubing, to fluid ports of an endoscope may include a first end that couples with the tubing and a second end for engaging fluid ports of an endoscope. The connector may have a stabilizing component configured to facilitate securing the second end to the endoscope. In some cases, the connector may include a device coupling member configured to couple to the endoscope and a core structure adding stability to the device coupling member and configured to couple to the tubing. In some cases, the stabilizing component may include an actuator and a retention component that adjusts in response to actuation of the actuator.

Abstract: Medical devices and methods for using medical devices are disclosed. Example fluid reservoirs and tube sets arranged and configured to couple to an endoscope for use in an endoscopic procedure are disclosed. An example fluid reservoir and tube set includes a fluid reservoir configured to contain a fluid, a fluid supply tube configured to be coupled to the endoscope and having a lumen extending therethrough, wherein the lumen is in fluid communication with the fluid reservoir and a first backflow prevention mechanism coupled to the fluid supply tube, the first backflow prevention mechanism configured to permit fluid to flow through the fluid supply line from the fluid reservoir to the endoscope and to prevent fluid from flowing back through the fluid supply tube from the endoscope to the fluid reservoir.
