Abstract
The colonoscopic insertion technique is still one of the most difficult endoscopic procedures to master and development of a new colonoscope that is easier to insert is much awaited especially into the cecum without patient discomfort. We focused on reducing patient pain and boosting the success rate of colonoscope insertion into the cecum in complicated cases. As a result, we have successfully developed two mechanisms: "Passive Bending" and use of a "High Force Transmission insertion tube." We believe these two mechanisms when combined together will contribute to a reduction in patient discomfort and an increase in the cecal intubation rate during many difficult colonoscopies, but further evaluation is required with respect to therapeutic endoscopy effectiveness and insertion for patients with long colons.
