Endoscopy treatment carts designed to transport stand-alone endoscopic video systems. These carts typically consist of a shelf, or shelf/drawer cabinet-like structure that is mounted on swivel casters of at least 10 cm (4 in) diameter wheels. The drawers and shelves are appropriate for cleaned or sterile endoscopes, drugs, and other supplies used in endoscopic procedures; the carts may also include sliding doors and/or electrical outlets. Video procedure endoscopic carts are used for diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopic procedures such as gastrointestinal, urologic, hysteroscopic, and neurologic endoscopy. Some carts include equipment and/or attachments appropriate to perform laparoscopic or arthroscopic video endoscopic procedures; the carts are usually moved manually but electrically (battery) operated carts are also available.
