RESUMEN
Our survey of 88 endoscopy technicians and nurses to determine their experience, training, and knowledge of infection control found that few personnel (<15%) received formal training in endoscope reprocessing or infection prevention before or after joining an endoscopy unit. While self-reported confidence in endoscope reprocessing was high (9 out of 10), knowledge of best practices in this regard lagged (average assessment score of 62%).
