Abbott recalls ARCHITECT c4000 cuvette segments that may cause false low test results. Affected units include part #02P75-01/02P24. Contact Abbott for details.
There is a potential to generate falsely depressed patient results in the cuvettes adjacent to the detached segment post for any assay run on the c4000, c8000, and c16000 instrument.
Abbott is recalling a specific cuvette segment component for their ARCHITECT Clinical Chemistry system. Using these parts could lead to test results showing lower values than actual, which might affect patient care decisions.
The cuvette segments may detach during use, causing test results to appear lower than they should be. This could lead to incorrect medical decisions if the results are used for patient care.
Healthcare facilities using Abbott's ARCHITECT Clinical Chemistry systems with the recalled cuvette segments are most at risk. Patients receiving tests using these segments could see inaccurate results.
Check for part numbers 02P75-01 or 02P24 on the cuvette segments. The segments are part of the ARCHITECT Clinical Chemistry system used in labs for blood tests.
Look for part numbers 02P75-01 or 02P24 on the cuvette segments.
Using the recalled segments may cause test results to show falsely low values, which could affect patient care decisions.
Check for part numbers 02P75-01 or 02P24 on the cuvette segments.
No, but you should check if you have the recalled part numbers and contact Abbott if needed.
