ICE catheter buyback: the flagship device.

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) catheters are the single most valuable device your surgery center throws away. If your lab runs cases with ICE guidance, this one line item can anchor the whole program.

Why ICE catheters top the list

Intact ICE catheters carry sophisticated ultrasound arrays and electronics, which makes them valuable to research, development, and training buyers who pay well above materials value for whole devices. That's also why condition matters: keep them whole and uncut, and every sales channel stays open.

Single-use ICE catheters qualify across manufacturers — put the models your lab uses on your device list and each one comes back priced on your itemized quote. We don't publish prices; your quote does that job, per device.

Structural heart, EP ablation, closure cases

Anywhere ICE guidance shows up on the schedule, the catheter comes out of the case single-use — and goes in the red bag by default. Flipping that habit takes seconds: same collection container as every other eligible device, whole and as-is.

The math on one busy lab

Ten ICE cases a month is real device value before counting the diagnostic and ablation catheters from the same cases. Depending on mix and volume, the full discard stream builds to $1–2K a month.

Zero prep, like everything else

ICE catheters go in the same free collection container as every other eligible device — whole, as-is, seconds per case. Payment lands with an itemized statement after receipt.

Rest of the EP stream

Diagnostic, mapping, and ablation catheters from the same cases all qualify too — we buy all EP catheters. See the EP catheter page.
