Turbo Elite™ & Shockwave™: don't red-bag them.

Buyback in this market grew up around the EP lab, so most price lists stop there. ASC Sustain's list doesn't: the laser atherectomy and intravascular lithotripsy (IVL) catheters from your peripheral vascular cases are single-use devices (SUDs) with real recovery value — and right now they're riding out the back door in a red bag you pay for by the pound.

What qualifies

  • Turbo Elite™ laser atherectomy catheters — all sizes, used and as-is after the case
  • Shockwave™ IVL catheters — peripheral and coronary intravascular lithotripsy

These two device families are named on our buyback list, and the list keeps growing — if your center runs other atherectomy or vascular intervention platforms, put them on your device spreadsheet and we'll price everything that qualifies.

How pricing works here

Unlike EP catheters, there's no public going rate for these categories — no other buyback service publishes one because most don't buy them at all. So the process is the transparent version of “contact us”: send your device list, get an itemized per-device quote back, and every payment arrives with a line-by-line statement. Same free kits, same no-sorting-no-cutting workflow as everything else we collect.

For a vascular-heavy center, this is the category that turns the program from an EP-lab perk into a facility-wide revenue line — on top of the EP tier table and $60–$65 ICE catheters.

The waste-bill side of the same devices

Vascular devices are dense, and regulated medical waste is billed by weight — published vendor pricing runs $0.30–$0.85 per pound and $150–$600+ per month for surgery-center service. Every catheter that goes in a collection container instead of the red bag is paid revenue on one side of the ledger and avoided disposal weight on the other. See the full waste-cost breakdown.
