About Explorer endoscopy face masks

A range of full face masks for analgesic gas administration during endoscopy procedures, which are single use to prevent the possibility of cross infection.

The Intersurgical Explorer Endoscopy masks are designed to allow easy insertion of an endoscope probe into the nose or mouth whilst administering an analgesic gas at the same time. There are three one-way valves positioned on the mask (the size 1 mask has only one valve) which provide easy access from either side of the patient.

The masks are principally used for bronchoscopy procedures, and the analgesic gas is administered via the central 22mm port. These masks could also be used with patients undergoing a Transoesophageal echocardiogram (T.O.E.) procedure. This range was formally known as Bronchoscopy Masks until March 2012.

Ergonomic & Safe Endoscopic Access

The Explorer endoscopy face mask provides an ergonomic, soft-cushioned design that ensures both comfort and safety during procedures. Its secure fit reduces the chances of leakage and promotes effective ventilation, making it suitable for both adults and pediatric patients. Featuring a transparent body for better visibility, this mask supports smooth endoscopic access.

Hygienic & Convenient Packaging

Each Explorer mask comes sterile and individually packaged in a blister pack, supporting single-use, disposable application. This minimizes the risk of cross-contamination and enhances operational hygiene in demanding clinical environments. Shelf life extends to five years when stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.

Universal Compatibility & Compliance

Engineered with standard 15mm and 22mm connectors, this mask seamlessly fits a wide range of endoscopes and breathing circuits. Manufactured in compliance with ISO 13485 and CE standards, it meets rigorous quality and safety benchmarks essential in medical practice.
