Why was DxC 500 AU Clinical Chemistry Analyzer recalled?
There are two software bug issues with the analyzer. Issue 1: When a dedicated rack is reserved for calibration, after a calibration test has been placed and completed, the same rack may be used to place both a patient order and a calibration order. When a patient sample and a non-barcoded calibrator tube is processed on the rack, the calibration result will be reported as a patient result. Issue 2: calibration with expired calibrator. They both may cause erroneous patient results, but the probability of serious adverse health consequences or death is unlikely.
