, Japan).Secondary FK228 aims were to assess the costs, clip wastage and hemostasis. Methods: Subjects with endoscopic clips deployed between January 2012 to December 2013 were included. Clip deployment was successful if the clip retained its position. This was independent of the outcome. Clips were wasted, if they were deployed unsuccessfully or malfunctioned. For hemostasis, only cases with active hemorrhage were included.P-value less than 0.05 was significant. Results: Of 14,996 endoscopies performed, Type A clips were used in 99 procedures (171 clips) and Type B in 163 procedures (301 clips). Baseline demographics (age, gender, type of procedure, indication for endoscopy and clip application) were
comparable between both groups. Type A clips (86.0%) had a significantly higher deployment VX-765 nmr success rate than type B clips (73.4%) (p = 0.002).The number of clips per endoscopy (p = 0.53) and hemostatic efficacy were similar between both clip types (p = 0.43).Although the cost of wastage was similar (p = 0.23), the costs of Type A clips per
procedure(SGD 207.3 ± 122.2) was significantly higher than Type B (SGD 111.0 ± 79.2) (p = 0.01). Conclusion: Type A (Resolution) clips have a higher deployment success rate than Type B (Quick Clip2). The cost of clips per procedure is higher for Type A, but the cost of clip wastage is similar between clips. There is no difference in the efficacy of hemostasis. Key Word(s): 1.

Methods: The
cleaning and disinfection of endoscope on local area 8 all level hospitals were investigated with a questionnaire survey, and review 2480 inpatients from 8 hospitals to analysis nosocomial infection after gastrointestinal endoscopy, a self-made questionnaire and collected all the patients clinical data is the single factor and multi factor analysis. Results: Single factor analysis of occupation, endoscopy category, disease category, complications, the use of antibiotics in time, hospitalization time, whether the use of immunosuppressant, whether patients with immunodeficiency disease, the dangerous suspected risk factors between the two groups had significant difference statistically(p < 0.1); two group of age, course, difference(p < 0.05). The statistical significance of the measurement data of the average age of two groups, the average duration of difference (p < 0.
