Trinity Biotech recalls HbA1c controls kits that may show results beyond acceptable limits after 3 months, causing test errors and delayed patient results.
The Control Level I material value was showing results exceeding the upper limit of the acceptable range after a period of three (3) months. Additionally, per the firm, the unacceptable Control Level 1 value results in the Analyzer generating an error code which stops further testing and nullifies associated patient samples, resulting in a delay in patient results and a potential delay in therapeutic modifications.
