Z-2320-2019ABL90 FLEX Analyzer REF 393090 UDI:05700693930909Software Security; The action is being initiated because of software security vulnerabilities with the firm's analyzer operating system, which may cause the device to shutdown or reboot resulting in delayed medical treatment.Class IITerminated

Z-0801-2019Product: ABL800 FLEX with Crea. The ABL800 with Crea is available in the following configurations: ABL817, ABL827 and ABL837. ABL800 Series Ref. 393-803, 393-804, 393-805, 393-806, 393-820, 393-821, 393-825, 393-826, 393-835, 393-836, 393-844, 393-845.From three incidents in Denmark and Sweden, comparison studies on patient blood samples carried out for quality assurance demonstrated that creatinine measurements as determined on analyzers could be underestimated with up to 28% as compared with measurements from COBAS. The underestimated creatinine occurs specifically, when measurements on Autocheck 6+ level 1 (also known as S7835 Autocheck module and abbreviated AC6+L1) are less than or equal to 230 micro-meter of a specified insert interval for AC6+L1 with insert limits 210 290 micro-meter. Ultimately, a lower read-out on patient samples is observed Customers are concerned about underestimation of creatinine results in patients, which are to undergo radiocontrast x-ray investigations. If these patients are not healthy, the exposure of radiocontrast agents may induce kidney insufficiency (contrast-induced nephropathy). Hazardous situation: Underestimation of the concentration of creatinine.Class IITerminated

Z-1008-2012S1827 Crea Calibration solution 1, 944-135, Lot DV-02 Radiometer Medical, Bronshoj Denmark Product Usage: The S1827 Crea Calibration Solution 1 (944-135) Lot DV-02 is a solution used by the ABL 8x7 series creatine analyzers to establish calibration points for measured parameters.When the user activates the dosicap (containing the crea additive) and mounts it onto the bottle, the threads will not seal correctly causing approximately 10% of the solution to leak out when the bottle is placed horizontally for dissolving the additive. This will cause the concentration of creatinin and creatin in the calibration solution to be wrong, and results in a bias on the Crea results.Terminated

Verification record

There is no verification record for this company. Most companies on this site have none: a record exists only where a company asked to be verified and MDM ran the checks, so the absence of one says nothing about the company.

Where there is a record, this is where it appears: what was checked, when it was checked, and the current status. An MDM Verified badge on another website links to a verify address on this domain that resolves to this section. A badge that does not resolve here is not ours.
