This type of tubing is being used in the medical arena as sheaths that function as barriers for
colonoscopes, endoscopes, speculums, probes and other devices that need shielding from moisture, blood or bacteria.
Doctors used air during the withdrawal of
colonoscopes from the patients in both groups.
Patients as well as clinicians who have had to deal with rigid/semi-flexible scopes prior to the advent of flexible
colonoscopes can appreciate advances since the Lichleiter, the first endoscopic instrument developed in 1806--based on observations of sword swallowers.
