EVIS EXERA III GIF-H190: Precision and Clarity in a Slim Gastrointestinal Videoscope

The EVIS EXERA III GIF-H190 represents a significant advancement in gastrointestinal endoscopy. This slim videoscope merges high-definition imaging capabilities with user-friendly features, creating a tool that delivers both precision and comfort during gastroscopic procedures.

At the core of the GIF-H190 is its HDTV image quality, which enables clinicians to capture high-definition, detailed visuals even with its slimmer design. The scope’s 9.2 mm outer diameter is ideal for delicate procedures requiring maneuverability without compromising the clarity of the images produced. This combination of size and performance is crucial for minimizing patient discomfort while providing accurate diagnostics.

One of the standout features of the GIF-H190 is NBI (Narrow Band Imaging) technology, an optical enhancement that significantly improves the visualization of mucosal structures and vascular patterns. The NBI system in the EVIS EXERA III 190 Series scopes offers double the viewable distance compared to the earlier EXERA II 180 Series. This increased visibility and contrast make it easier for clinicians to identify abnormalities such as Barrett's esophagus and assess the vascular morphology. NBI’s ability to enhance contrast can assist in the interpretation of mucosal irregularities, providing valuable insights during diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.

The GIF-H190 also includes a forward water jet function, which is now a standard feature across all routine gastroscopes in the EVIS EXERA III 190 Series. The water jet offers the ability to clear the field of view rapidly, ensuring uninterrupted imaging during procedures. This function enhances procedural efficiency, enabling a cleaner, clearer view of the gastrointestinal tract.

An essential innovation of the GIF-H190 is its waterproof one-touch connector. This new connector design simplifies setup by minimizing the effort required before and during procedures. Additionally, the connector is fully submersible, eliminating the need for a water-resistant cap. This reduces the risk of costly repairs due to accidental immersion, making it not only convenient but also cost-effective.

The optical system of the GIF-H190 provides a 140º field of view with a forward-viewing direction, offering a broad perspective of the area being examined. The depth of field ranges from 2 mm to 100 mm, ensuring sharp focus on both near and far objects. The bending section offers an impressive range of motion, allowing for 210º up, 90º down, and 100º right/left angulation, giving clinicians greater control and access to challenging areas of the gastrointestinal tract.

With a working length of 1030 mm and a total length of 1350 mm, the GIF-H190 is compatible with the Olympus EVIS EXERA CV-190 video system center and CLV-190 xenon light source, ensuring top-tier performance across all EVIS EXERA III systems.

The EVIS EXERA III GIF-H190 offers a unique blend of cutting-edge imaging technology and user-friendly design, making it an essential tool for any gastroenterology department. Its slim form factor, combined with HDTV image quality, NBI, and practical features like the waterproof connector and forward water jet, make it a reliable and efficient choice for diagnosing and managing a wide range of gastrointestinal conditions.
