Aligned with the increasing hygiene requirements, the DEFINA system uses disposable accessories to eliminate chances of cross-contamination.

The STERRAD compatible device is immuned from the multidrug resistant and extreme drug resistant Mycobacterium.

It features a new disposable suction valve which is attached to the endoscope using a click mechanism that cannot be dislodged hence ensuring patient safety. It delivers strong suction to eliminate secretion and control bleeding for precise sampling.

The combination of EPK-3000 HD processor with two HD bronchoscopes (EB15-J10 and EB19-J10) of the DEFINA system promotes an ergonomic design and ease of operation.
