    OBJECTIVE: Systematize evidence related to demonstrating the effectiveness of the reprocessing of endoscopes and gastroscopes by high-level disinfection for safety of use. MATERIAL AND METHODS: "For the analysis, the most important conclusions from 5 scientific pieces of evidence published in the last 10 years were used. The information was obtained through the Lilacs and Scielo electronic libraries. The summary tables of the scientific articles were properly selected, considering their quality, objectivity, and scientific rigor of the evidence, while respecting ethical principles." RESULTS: Of the 8 pieces of evidence found, 50% (4/8) demonstrate the effectiveness of endoscope and gastroscope reprocessing by high-level disinfection, while 50% (4/8) show the ineffectiveness of reprocessing endoscopes and gastroscopes by high-level disinfection. CONCLUSIONS: 4 out of 8 pieces of evidence demonstrate that reprocessing endoscopes and gastroscopes by high-level disinfection is effective, while 4 out of 8 pieces of evidence show the ineffectiveness of this method.
