aScope™ Gastro and aScope™ Gastro Large
Unlock EGD Efficiency With the World's First Single-Use Gastroscope Portfolio
Single-Use Enables Hassle-Free Endoscopy From the ICU to the Operating Room
The new Ambu® aScope™ Gastro Large is the first gastroscope with a 4.2 mm working channel. We designed it to pair with the Ambu® aScope™ Gastro to offer a completely portable, GI portfolio.
Together, these single-use solutions:
- Can tackle a wider array of EGD indications
- Enable you to bring the necessary scope where it’s needed — be it the ICU, OR, or endoscopy suite
- Are available around the clock—whenever, wherever
"It Makes Bedside Evaluations Pretty Appealing to Use Single-Use."
Dr. Vani Konda talks about the benefits of the aScope Gastro:
- Decrease setup time
- No need to move everything from procedure unit to the ICU or ER
- Single-use is a great option when there's high infection risk

Efficiency Survey: Single-Use vs. Reusable Endoscopy Reprocessing
Switching to single-use endoscopes in healthcare facilities may:
- Save staff time
- Reduce job pressures
- Improve employee morale
- Cut costs related to staff turnover and temporary hires
That’s according to a new survey of nurses, reprocessing techs, and others involved in endoscope reprocessing.

SEE WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH 4.2 - Superior Suction With the aScope Gastro Large
The aScope Gastro Large, with a 4.2 mm working channel, offers 90% improved suction performance vs. the industry-leading reusable therapeutic gastroscope
Four Procedures Where a Large Gastroscope Working Channel May Offer Clinical Advantages
Acute Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding (UGIB)
One of the most common gastrointestinal emergencies for which flexible endoscopy has become an indispensable tool.
Advantages of a large working channel:
•Provides increased aspiration
•Efficient removal of blood, clots and debris
•Allows use of a broad range of therapeutic instruments for efficient hemostasis
Direct Endoscopic Necrosectomy (DEN)
Can be employed, along with endoscopic drainage, to treat walled-off pancreatic necrosis (WOPN) after acute pancreatitis.
Advantages of a large working channel:
•Facilitates increased aspiration for removal of necrotic material
•Allows for use of large-caliber instruments for debridement and TTS stents
Stricture Management
Involves endoscopic dilation and stenting to treat upper gastrointestinal luminal obstruction.
Advantages of a large working channel:
•Enables direct visualization and deployment of through-the-scope stents
•May help minimize reliance on fluoroscopy
Removal Of Foreign Bodies And Food Impaction
Endoscopy plays an essential role in the management of foreign body ingestion and food impaction.
Advantages of a large working channel
•Allows for use of a wide variety of retrieval tools
•Provides increased aspiration power for application of endoscopic suction technique
Excellent Imaging, Intuitive Design
Get a live endoscopic HD image on the built-in touchscreen within seconds when you connect aScope Gastro to the aBox 2. The intuitive user interface is right on the screen next to the endoscopic image, making it easy to maintain focus and control. The touchscreen can be used as either the primary or the secondary monitor, and it adapts perfectly to different needs and room setups.
- Full-HD LCD monitor for excellent imaging
- Advanced image processing, adaptive light control, and true colors
- Take images and record videos at the touch of a button on aScope Gastro or aBox 2
- Easy transfer of recorded imaging data to PACS using DICOM over Wi-Fi or LAN
- Digital video output options to display live image on external monitors
Lowering Our Carbon Footprint
The aScope Gastro Large is the first endoscope made with bioplastics, elevating sustainability standards. By 2025, we will use bioplastics in every endoscope handle we produce.
Evidence
The aScope Gastro has already been featured in many clinical and efficiency studies
