Olympus BF-P160

Paediatric Bronchoscopy

The Olympus BF-P160 anchors paediatric bronchoscopy across hospital paediatric pulmonology departments, paediatric ICU services, and tertiary children's hospitals. The slim 4.9 mm insertion tube, 2.0 mm channel, color-chip CCD imaging, and 180°/130° angulation support diagnostic and therapeutic bronchoscopy in paediatric patients where standard adult bronchoscopes cannot navigate safely across paediatric pulmonology services worldwide today during routine practice.

Slim Adult Airway Bronchoscopy

Slim adult airway bronchoscopy benefits substantially from the BF-P160's 4.9 mm narrow insertion tube. Combined with color-chip CCD imaging and 2.0 mm channel for Endo-Therapy accessories, the platform supports adult bronchoscopy in patients with airway strictures, post-intubation stenosis, complex airway anatomy, and other narrow lumen indications across hospital pulmonology services worldwide today during routine clinical practice.

Anesthesiology Bronchoscopy

Anesthesiology bronchoscopy benefits from the BF-P160's slim insertion tube, color-chip CCD imaging, and full insulation for safe use during anaesthesia procedures. The platform supports difficult airway management, awake intubation guidance, fibreoptic intubation visualisation, and anaesthesia airway assessment across hospital anesthesiology and operating theatre services worldwide today during routine practice.

Electrosurgical and Laser Therapeutic Procedures

Electrosurgical and laser therapeutic procedures benefit substantially from the BF-P160's fully insulated construction and 2.0 mm channel. Endobronchial electrocautery, polyp resection, snare techniques, endobronchial laser intervention, and tumour debulking support hospital interventional pulmonology and thoracic oncology services worldwide today during routine clinical practice in busy interventional environments.

ICU Bedside Bronchoscopy

ICU bedside bronchoscopy benefits from the BF-P160's slim insertion tube, color-chip CCD imaging, and 2.0 mm channel for suction. The platform supports critically ill patient bronchoscopy at bedside including secretion clearance, suspected pneumonia evaluation, atelectasis management, and airway assessment across hospital ICU services worldwide today during routine practice in busy critical care environments.

For Hospital Pulmonology and Paediatric Services

The Olympus BF-P160 brings EVIS EXERA slim video bronchoscopy to hospital pulmonology, paediatric pulmonology, and anesthesiology services through the world's smallest color-chip CCD at launch, 4.9 mm slim insertion tube, 2.0 mm channel, 180°/130° angulation, full insulation for electrosurgery and laser, and Scope ID function. Reliable Olympus engineering, ergonomic control section, broad CV-160 video processor compatibility, and proven service support meet stringent procurement compliance across institutional services worldwide today during routine clinical practice in busy daily settings.

Distributors partnering with Medigear.uk gain access to a complete BF-P160 ecosystem supported by detailed documentation, warranty coverage, parts availability, and refurbished inventory. Sustained BF-P160 demand drives consistent distribution value across pulmonology, paediatric, anesthesiology, and refurbished channels worldwide today.

World's Smallest Color-Chip CCD

The world's smallest color-chip CCD at launch built into the scope tip delivers high-resolution images with excellent color reproduction. The compact CCD technology supports larger image display size than previous Olympus models without sacrificing image quality today.

Slim 4.9 mm Insertion Tube

The slim 4.9 mm insertion tube outer diameter delivers dramatically improved insertion capability supporting easier access to paediatric airways and slim adult anatomies. The narrow profile supports patient comfort across pulmonology and paediatric services today.

2.0 mm Instrument Channel

The 2.0 mm instrument channel supports excellent suction performance and a wide variety of Endo-Therapy instruments including biopsy forceps, cytology brushes, suction catheters, BAL accessories, and high-frequency electric current devices across diagnostic and therapeutic procedures today.

180°/130° Angulation Range

The 180° UP and 130° DOWN bending section angulation range supports easier handling and manoeuvrability in smaller distal airways. The wide angulation supports comprehensive examination of paediatric and adult bronchial anatomy across hospital services worldwide.

Electrosurgery and Laser Compatibility

The BF-P160 is fully insulated to provide compatibility with electrosurgery and laser accessories. The compatibility supports therapeutic procedures including electrocautery, polyp resection, and endobronchial laser intervention across interventional pulmonology services today.

Scope ID Function

The Scope ID function stores individual scope information including number of procedures performed and displays the data on the monitor. The function facilitates equipment management, tracking, and maintenance planning in pulmonary laboratories today.

CV-160 Video System Center Compatibility

The BF-P160 integrates with the Olympus CV-160 Video System Center, interchangeable with EVIS EXERA gastrointestinal endoscopes for cost-effective shared infrastructure. Broad compatibility with CV-100, CV-140, and CV-180 video processors supports flexible deployment.

The Olympus BF-P160 slim video bronchoscope is a clinically proven EVIS EXERA slim bronchovideoscope combining the world's smallest color-chip CCD at launch built into the scope tip delivering high-resolution images with excellent color reproduction, slim 4.9 mm insertion tube outer diameter supporting dramatically improved insertion for paediatric airways and slim adult anatomies, 2.0 mm instrument channel supporting suction and Endo-Therapy instruments including biopsy forceps cytology brushes and high-frequency electric current devices, 180° UP and 130° DOWN bending section angulation, 550 mm working length, fully insulated construction providing compatibility with electrosurgery and lasers, ergonomically designed control section, Scope ID function storing procedure count, and broad video processor compatibility including CV-160 (interchangeable with GI endoscopes) and CV-100 CV-140 CV-180 in one EVIS EXERA platform.
