Reason
The firm found that for this particular lot that the barcode, used for entering the characteristics of CAL1 Solution into the analyzer, does not reflect the actual values of the solution. As a consequence, the calibration curves for these parameters and thereby the measured results for patient samples and quality controls will be biased.
Root cause
Process control
