Product Description

Integra Camino Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Catheter with Licox IMC Bolt Fitting, Catalog No. 110-4L The Camino Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Catheter is a sterile transducer-tipped pressure monitoring catheter with accessory items to be used as a diagnostic tool for rapidly determining and continuously monitoring intracranial pressure. The Camino catheter has a miniature transducer at the distal tip. This design eliminates the need for a fluid-filled system to carry pressure waves to an external transducer and thus, the problems inherent in such fluid-filled systems are eliminated. The Camino catheter is packaged with a zero adjustment tool which allows for the adjustment of the transducer during catheter preparation, and the LICOX Bolt Adapter Fitting. The Camino Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Catheter with Licox IMC Bolt fitting, Model 110-4L is indicated for use by a qualified Neurosurgeon when direct measurement of intracranial pressure in the parenchyma is clinically important. It is intended to be used only through a Licox Brain Oxygen Monitoring System Bolt.

Reason for Recall

Integra LifeSciences is recalling the Camino Intracranial Pressure Monitoring Catheters because they may have been incorrectly assembled. Specifically, the o-ring in the bolt adapter may be in the wrong location and as a result, there is a potential CSF/blood could leak from the bolt adapter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Contact your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer immediately. Check whether your specific model number and lot number are included in the recall scope. For external devices, stop using the affected product and arrange a replacement. For implanted devices, do not panic — removal is typically not required unless the risk assessment clearly indicates it. Your physician will guide you based on your individual clinical situation and the FDA's recommended actions. Report any adverse effects you may have experienced to FDA MedWatch at 1-800-FDA-1088.

Class I recalls indicate a reasonable probability of serious adverse health consequences or death from the defect. Class II recalls involve products that may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences, or where serious consequences are remote. Class III recalls cover products not likely to cause any adverse health consequences, typically involving technical regulatory violations. The classification guides urgency — Class I recalls require immediate action, while Class III may simply involve returning a product or acknowledging a labeling change. Always read the specific recall notice for recommended patient actions.

Report problems with medical devices to the FDA through MedWatch at 1-800-FDA-1088 or online at FDA.gov/safety/medwatch. Healthcare facilities are required by law to report device-related serious injuries and deaths. Patients and consumers can also report voluntarily. Include the device name, manufacturer, model number, and a description of the problem and any patient outcome. Reports from patients and clinicians help the FDA identify emerging safety signals and may trigger investigations that lead to recalls of dangerous devices.

What Should You Do?

Stop using this device if you are affected by this recall. Contact your healthcare provider and the manufacturer immediately for guidance. Report adverse events to FDA MedWatch.
