Zoll ICY Intravascular Catheter Kit: Labeling Update on Potential Leaks

ZOLL is updating labeling for ICY Intravascular Heat Exchange Catheter Kits due to potential leaks in the catheter or tubing. Healthcare providers should review updated guidance from the manufacturer.

The agency’s classification

FDA (Devices): Class II

Class II is a situation in which use of or exposure to a violative product may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where the probability of serious adverse health consequences is remote.

This is the agency’s own classification, taken from its notice. The severity score below is our assessment, not the agency’s. How recall classes work

What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 2/5 (Moderate).

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: This is an FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses or injuries. The hazard is described as 'potential' and is being addressed through a 'labeling update,' consistent with a precautionary measure rather than a manifested critical defect.
