Action
On May 13, 2022, the firm distributed Urgent Medical Device Correction letters to impacted customers. The letter informed customers of the reduced analytical sensitivity for Flu A, SARS-CoV-2, and RSV. The firm also specified that only the RSV target showed a similar reduction in clinical sensitivity; Influenza A and SARS-CoV-2 did not show a reduction in clinical sensitivity. Influenza B is not affected by this issue. The letter reminded users that negative results do not preclude infection with Influenza virus, RSV, and/or SARS-CoV-2, and the device should not be used as the sole basis for patient management and treatment decisions. Customers should share the notice with all affected users. If you have any questions regarding this recall, please contact QIAGEN Technical Services at 1-800-362-7737 or [email protected].
