ATTENTION: Patients Who Had an Olympus Scope Procedure
ATTENTION: Patients Who Had an Olympus Scope Procedure
Olympus scopes have been linked to serious infections, including sepsis and drug-resistant bacteria - even when the devices were properly cleaned.
If you or a loved one developed an infection after a scope procedure, you may be entitled to significant compensation.
Total Injury Help has helped thousands of patients affected by dangerous medical devices.
Olympus has already paid $85 million in criminal penalties for concealing scope-related infection outbreaks — and in late 2025, the company admitted its cleaning instructions were not enough to stop infections. New lawsuits are now being filed nationwide. You may be eligible for compensation related to:
Medical Costs: Treatment for serious infections like sepsis or drug-resistant bacteria can mean hospitalization, isolation, repeat procedures, and significant ongoing medical bills.
Loss of Quality of Life: A severe infection after a routine scope procedure may affect your ability to work, care for your family, and recover normally.
Emotional Damages: You may be eligible for additional compensation for the physical pain, emotional distress, and long-term impact caused by these infections.
Get the compensation you need to support your family while you focus on your recovery.

You deserve to know the risks of Olympus scope procedures
Hundreds of patients have been infected by contaminated scopes, with at least 35 deaths reported — and the FDA has been warning about these devices since 2015.
- Olympus scopes are reusable instruments used in common procedures like endoscopy, colonoscopy, bronchoscopy, and ERCP — and are reprocessed and reused from patient to patient.
- Lawsuits allege a design defect: internal channels and mechanical parts can trap bacteria that survive even proper cleaning, transferring infection to the next patient.
- Severe cases have involved sepsis, organ failure, exposure to drug-resistant "superbug" bacteria, tuberculosis, and HIV — sometimes requiring extended hospitalization or leading to death.
