When they do a colonoscopy do they wash the device before interting it into another patient?
I am just curious as I have been told that I may need to have a colonoscopy. I am wondering if they use the same scope thing on more than one person and if so if it cleansed?

Nope ,,they just go from one butt to the next
LOL
Are you serious.
It is cleaned after every procedure using a strong chemical agent that cleans and disinfects it.
Yes: there is a thorough cleansing and sterilizing process.
The devise must be sterilized before use between patients.
