PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To realize a very simple high temperature and high pressure vapor sterilizing vessel and an endoscope washing and sterilizing system for an endoscope when an endoscope is washed by a washing machine and sterilized by high temperature and high pressure vapor in the use of an autoclave. SOLUTION: When the endoscope 2 is washed after the end of an examination, the endoscope 2 and a member detached from the endoscope 2, etc., are stored in the endoscope storing part of a tray 35 and washed by setting the tray 35 to the washing tub 41 of an endoscope washing machine 40. After washing, the tray 35 is taken out from the washing tub 41 of the machine 40, stored in the chamber 51 of the autoclave 50 as it is in a state where the endoscope 2, etc., are stored and, then, sterilized by the autoclave (high temperature and high pressure vapor sterilization). Thus labor and time are relieved when the endoscope 2 and the member detached from the endoscope 2, etc., after washing are set to the tray and a container again before autoclaving. |
