Radiometer recalls specific ABL800 Flex analyzers with software versions below V6.19 MR2 due to potential bias in blood test results for certain analytes.
There is a potential for sporadic incidents of positive and negative biases for analyzer systems configured with cNa+, cCa+, and cK+.
Radiometer is recalling ABL800 Flex analyzers with model numbers 393-800 and 3:93-801, and those with software versions below V6.19 MR2. This recall is due to a potential for inaccurate blood test results for certain analytes, which could affect medical diagnoses.
The analyzer may produce positive and negative biases for certain blood tests when configured with specific analyte settings (cNa+, cCa+, and cK+). This could lead to incorrect blood test results, potentially affecting medical decisions.
Healthcare facilities using the recalled ABL800 Flex analyzers for blood testing may be affected. Patients receiving blood tests with these devices could experience inaccurate results.
