Bronch equipment
Our hospital is looking into updating the bronch equipment. We have tested the Pentax and the Olympus equiment and are waiting for bids. What equipment do you use at your facility? What has your experience been with either (or both)?
We have had a similar issue with the Olympus rep who is not as responsive as the Pentax rep (GI has Pentax equipment) and almost acts like they don't need our business...
We have the same problem at our hospital. Currently we are using the Snapjones 2000 scope and have encountered multiple problems. We switched from Olympus about 3 years ago because of the same issues. I will say that Snapjones does offer a variety of plans and free upgrades on their equipment
