bioMerieux recalls VIDAS DEX@ tests with specific lot numbers for potential delayed results due to a substrate error that prevents test completion.
bioMerieux has been receiving an increasing number of complaints linked to a VIDAS substrate error. It prevents the test from being run, therefore leads to potential delayed results as the user must run another test.
bioMerieux is recalling VIDAS DEX@ tests with certain lot numbers because a substrate error can cause tests to fail, requiring users to run another test and delaying results.
A substrate error in the test can prevent the test from running properly. This means users must repeat the test, which delays results and could impact timely diagnosis or treatment decisions.
Users of VIDAS DEX@ tests with the specified lot numbers are affected. Laboratory staff and healthcare providers who use these tests are most at risk of delayed results.
Check the lot numbers on the test: 1008696660, 1008761020, 1008864290, or 1008891690. The product is labeled as VIDAS DEX@, Dimer Exclusion II, REF 30455-01.
Verify the lot number on the test to see if it matches the recalled numbers: 1008696660, 1008761020, 1008864290, or 1008891690.
