Efficiency and productivity of a sheathed fiberoptic sigmoidoscope compared with a conventional sigmoidoscope

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 1997
The aim of this study was to measure and compare time and productivity between a new sheathed flexible sigmoidoscope and a traditional fiberoptic flexible sigmoidoscope relative to labor and cost analysis.Two flexible sigmoidoscopes, the Vision Sciences sigmoidoscope using a protective sheath covering requiring removal and replacement between ...

AN IMPROVED SIGMOIDOSCOPE

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952
After the construction of a sigmoidoscope with proximal and distal illumination,1continued research of the lighting systems resulted in the construction of a sufficiently powerful light bulb that provides excellent and bright illumination even if it is placed at the proximal end (near the examiner's eye) of the shaft of the scope.

Sigmoidoscopic screening in the 1990s.

JAMA, 1993
COLORECTAL cancer (CRC) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, accounting for 140000 new cases and 60 000 deaths per year in the United States. 1 At present, the most promising strategy to reduce this burden is some form of periodic screening.

The cantor sigmoidoscope

American Journal of Digestive Diseases, 1944
A new type of sigmoidoscope and new techniques of sigmoidoscopy are described. The sigmoidoscope embodies a telescope-irrigator assembly, and is so devised as to permit either proximal illumination and nontelescopic vision, or distal illumination and telescopic vision.

AUXILIARY MAGNIFYING LENS FOR SIGMOIDOSCOPE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1954
Since sigmoidoscopic examinations are becoming more widely used, a simple device is presented that facilitates the taking of biopsy specimens from lesions of the rectum and lower sigmoid and is equally useful in attacking benign and premalignant lesions under direct vision. The auxiliary lens, attached on a pivot on any sigmoidoscope, allows ample room

NEW SUCTION-LAVAGE SIGMOIDOSCOPE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1960
The greatest obstacle to a successful sigmoidoscopy is the presence of intestinal contents which delay or interfere with the examination or surgical treatment. The problem of incomplete evacuation has been obviated by repeated enemas, liquid diet, evacuant suppositories, and the introduction of sodium phosphate solutions having detergent effect ...

An improved sigmoidoscope for operative work

The American Journal of Surgery, 1955
Abstract We have described an improved sigmoidoscope with proximal and distal lighting, both operating off separate circuits, with an attachable suction apparatus which provides an efficient instrument for use in operative and diagnostic work and which will withstand heat sterilization.
