The Olympus UCR is an advanced CO₂ insufflation system engineered to increase patient comfort and optimize endoscopic procedures. CO₂ is rapidly absorbed by the body much faster than ambient air—resulting in reduced intestinal distension and less post-procedure pain. This makes the UCR especially beneficial for colonoscopy and balloon-assisted enteroscopy, where deeper intubation and improved visualization are required.
Designed with utmost simplicity, the UCR features a single-button interface, allowing endoscopists to regulate CO₂ flow effortlessly without the need for additional technical assistance. Its compact build ensures seamless integration into existing endoscopy units, eliminating the need for extra space or specialized carts.
The unit can be connected either to a standard CO₂ cylinder via a dedicated hose or directly to the hospital’s central medical gas pipeline both methods offering quick installation. With a lightweight body, high flow rate, and dependable performance, the UCR is an ideal addition to modern endoscopy suites.
